her song!
the fossil record of genomics

a retina inside out dating back to

the sightless bacteria from which multi-celled animals evolve
roll over
toll the bell

navigate your surprise

look up to her sky

water will carry your sound…

singing Was she here

or was it a ghost?
an artist?

the notes on which
an early fireball was singing
gave a direct way to calculate
cosmological parameters
like the geography of

space/time

density of the universe & its rate of expansion

layer upon layer
gouge out the billboard lights from a 40s memoir
(there was a war)
overcoat..........a clue.....her music box....safe inside a black silk corset
a pile of stones

some of the people crying down by the riverside

we watch them
