of the refrain

how like a note that chases song,

like Einsteins's process-in-pursuit,

of chosing to reside inside the images of thought

by staving off their thick succession into words,

of simply orchestrating definitions

into evolutions of 'what if'

"Deformations destined to harness a great force are
already present in the small-form refrain or rondo.
Childhood scenes, children's games: the starting point
is a childlike refrain, but the child has wings already,
he becomes celestial. The becoming-child of the
musician is coupled with a becoming-aerial of the child,
in a nondecomposable block. The memory of an angel,
or rather the becoming of a cosmos."
