[ ekmeles :: Roulette (Brooklyn, NY), 24 January 2013 ]
Three in, ad abundantiam – tentative supplements; insecure, mumbled marginalia to another work (vo mesurando for four high voices); three denied attempts at entry. Fragments of text from Petrarch: “Solo e pensoso,” a hymn in sonnet form to ineloquence and to refusal, which admits the possibility of communication only unwillingly, and only because communication is what happens.
“Alone and pensive…”; “my life, which is hidden from others…”; “with me, and me with it…”
