8/14/2017 Poetry by Mark YoungKey Largo I have a new favorite piece of Bach, the largo from the Piano Concerto #5 in F minor. It is what I call walking music. The pace of it, the expanse. French avenues or neo-Grecian porticos. Last Year at Marienbad. Once again I walk down those ornate baroque corridors… or however it goes. Somewhere I have heard it before, perhaps used in a film, perhaps a version by the Modern Jazz Quartet, one of those strange pieces that John Lewis would mix into their tuxedo-clad repertoire. Seemingly a serious ensemble, then suddenly Milt Jackson would take off all dazzling, & beneath his lines those Lewis blues notes on piano, curving away. & the accompanying small grunts, the smile as Jackson did something that delighted the pianist. A largo is a movement in slow time with a broad dignified treatment. This Bach largo is emotion in a landscape, a wide path that passes between & beneath old trees just after the encroachment of autumn. For once, I am elegant in an environment. It is a part of me I can never hope to otherwise be. gastric umbrage Run these experiments in a test-tube. The true mule aficionado will take alarm as they stand at their gate in their dressing-gown. Ex- pect also a strong reaction from vegetarians. There’s evidence of classical defense mechanisms in play here. Brahms' Lullaby A loosely structured substance or a low threshold requirement such as a grocer or newsagent is not enough to generate the derivation of extrinsic inter- pretations. In Japanese, "my" or "mine" can be expressed as watashi no. Such possessives are not strongly distinct in meaning from a cluster of properties or winter apparel like scarves. Elsewhere, the higher ranks wonder if a basic grasp of menial skills alone will be enough to carry them through. The answer to that is both yes & no. Indolent apertures I receive at least one call per day for the $1,000,000 Jamaican Lottery. The creature is immovable, exerts much influence, promotes humiliating racial pro- filing. Ever since the days of Galileo, most teachings of astronomy are false & pernicious. A line from Bernie Sanders The workshops were convened against a background of concepts relative to defining seismic source zones. Thermal & geodetic modeling of the movement to- ward oligarchy shows that under high induced stress & high levels of mine extraction it begins to find voice in violent discourses, to exhibit brittle behavior, to break into pieces when subjected to intense compressional stress.
