Au Revoir Simone is a feminine electro-pop group from Brooklyn with an ethereal look & feel. This is one of the tracks from their The Bird of Music album.Their press sheet said, “The Bird of Music is an album steeped in hazy dreams, thoroughbred horses, soft winter snows, dusty rays of sunlight and lovelorn wishes. It is a record of dichotomies, carefully marrying cold beats with warm voices, joy and sadness, the human and the machine.” Website here.
I’ve been thinking
imbibing those nascent things
in a pantheon of doom
suffused with light.
I’ve been missing
the one with the tattoo,
full of grunge,
and humor, and darkness,
inside my vertiginous eye.
I’ve been sleeping
with the meteorologist,
whose predictions are an assemblage
of signs, from God,
who’s everywhere,
in the crevices of light & darkness,
in the falsehood of ceilings.
