This is a poem that went through many rewrites. During its evolution, I sought to make it denser and denser, with repeating patterns of sound and images to create an effect of a star studded sky. It is a simple image, a simple piece of music, meant to be enjoyed as a piece of music. I write poetry from the premise 'poetry is the art of making music with language', in its most general definition. And I like to create new forms of making music with language sometimes, stretching beyond or reaching beyond the traditional forms of rhyme schemes in iambic pentameter. We live now in a world of computers and machines, like it or not, and this is a form that I think is relevant in this world, and captures the look and feel of it. estory
