Gloria!

Antonio Vivaldi - Gloria in excelsis Deo (RV 589)

Realizzato da Philippe Béziat // Concerto Italiano - Rinaldo Alessandrini - Sara Mingardo

 

Antonio Vivaldi wrote at least three settings of the hymn Gloria in excelsis Deo, whose words date probably from the 4th Century and which is an integral part of the Ordinary of the Mass. Two survive: RV 588 and RV 589. A third, RV 590, is mentioned only in the Kreuzherren catalogue and presumed lost. The RV 589 Gloria is a familiar and popular piece a...

Diane Di Prima - Song for Spring Equinox

It is the first day of spring, the children are singing
(they are supposed to be sleeping) the clock is ticking
the cats are waiting for supper, one of them pregnant
kittens to herald the spring, nothing is blooming
nothing seems to bloom much around farms, just hayfields and corn
farms are too pragmatic, I look at ads
for hydrangea bushes, which I hate they remind me of brooklyn

 

for chinese wisteria vines, which I can’t picture
but they sound exotic and mysterious
a kind of blue purple, I decide I...

Rickey Laurentiis - Swing Low

We aren’t the solid men.

       We bend like the number seven. 

Dig at corners, eat cobwebs, we

      are barefoot and bare-legged.

      We hang like leaves in autumn.

 

We aren’t the stolid men.

      We scribble in familiar ink

about sunfalls and night. We

      see the white in the sky, and sigh.

      We lie with penciled grins.

 

We aren’t the men, any men.

      We rip at the neck and wonder why 

while rattlers roll in. Bent 

      as a number, crooked, sundered,

      we aren’t the id...

Tommy Pico - from 'Junk'

Wherever we go, needs feed and I find it harder and harder to

believe benevolence is the thing Thousands of Yazidi girls

 

missing and plastic fills the ocean’s mouth and the cursive of

yr name still occupies the canopy of my throat Fuel, the under-

becoming lava becoming land Land, the trauma of lava Lava

Anne Boyer - Not Writing

When I am not writing I am not writing a novel called 1994  about a young

woman  in  an  office park  in a  provincial town who has a job  cutting  and

pasting time. I am not writing a novel called Nero about the world's richest

art star in space.  I am not writing  a book  called Kansas City Spleen.  I am

not writing a sequel to Kansas City Spleen called Bitch's Maldoror. I am not

writing  a  book of  political  philosophy called Questions for Poets. I am not

writing a scandalous memoir.  I...
