Wrote this poem in the intensity of the afternoon on that day and I wouldn’t describe it only as stream-of-consciousness or surreal or dream-time but as an inter-splicing, like synapses crossing the brain to create strange formations and patterns, of different meridians from the world in which I am embedded. From the sonic to metaphors of natural substances, processes and systems that express thoughts about life and death and consciousness to cultural events, such as the recent tragic death of Michael Jackson and the paradoxes he represents, or personal ones, like my 86 year old mother’s recently broken hip, to historical revolution. The way it is in the deeper speaking, behind which. Life enters. Renovation going on outside my window, which you may be able to hear, became the renovation in the poem. The poem spans many meridians. I’ve decided to call it :

Meridians of Culture

s'égrènent inexorablement les mots sur un intemporel tempo doucement le temps passe et ces mots m'enlacent et avec cette musique s'entrelacent à eux deux enfin chassent...... ......tous mes maux

While I am honoured, I would ask that you please link to my site at Jamendo, particularly the track where you took this from. What a surprise today. The music that you've added is interesting, and while this is new to me please be patient while I absorb this process. It was your own idea, and you added a track of your own playing to the piece, even went to my website and chose a painting for this new version (though you did ask if it was alright with me & let me hear an earlier version :-)

I'm not sure about the begining of the piece. The comparisons of such things as brain neuron activity didn't do much for me. However, after the first minute of what I will describe as the introduction or the abstract section of the piece it got into a nice well timed flow with the female voice floating on the bouncing rhythm of the track. I thought the pitch and pace of the voice was very good and it all worked well together. I've not really listened to much poetry for a few years now and the contents of much of the verse here didn't connect. The lines that did connect I really did enjoyed. However, I did connect with and enjoy the majority of the peice which was quite a long peice of poetry. That in itself was an acheivement. Though I don't think myself qualified to comment on this in the contents on modern poetry, I will say that I did enjoy the music, the voice and most of the words.
