TC: Hush, Hush

.

for Ted Berrigan

I know these radio waves
are being stored away
in my brain somewhere
even tho I’m not here
to pay any attention
to them

They’ll come back later as
frequency-modulated
variety shows and UHF cabaret

This is what I was thinking, Ted

For instance, while I was
writing this
the following music
came into my head:

Overture to Sonata for Trumpets & Strings
by Henry Purcell
Miles Davis: Ssh… Peaceful
Jimmy Reed: Hush, Hush

The Sunblind: Juan Gris, 1914 (Tate Gallery)

Ted Berrigan: Alex Katz, 1967
