current dablings

if you have not listened to seattle's very own fleet foxes, you ought to- they describe their sound accurately as "baroque harmonic pop jams." wonderful music.
yesterday, they were appropriately the background music for my very first reading of t.s. elliot's "
four quartets". i walked in circles in the sun.






"I said to my soul, be still, and let the dark come upon you
Which shall be the darkness of God. As, in a theatre,
The lights are extinguished, for the scene to be changed
With a hollow rumble of wings, with a movement of darkness on darkness,
And we know that the hills and the trees, the distant panorama
And the bold imposing facade are all being rolled away—"
