A Room (of One's Own) with a View

I remember the cadaverous approach to happiness
and something about a Gold Coin or Golden Coin
or Man with a Golden Arm.
The scene with the last supper was not the first.
Foodies! Always foodies - thinking a world
of impastos and gouaches, a world
where mistakes can be sent back to the kitchen.
These were a few of my favorite things:
John Coltrane at the Village Gate:
BE: Before eBay and confusion
and scads of DVDs coloring the silence
of conversations with (significant) others.
Teshigahara's Woman in the Dunes,
the air salty at the outermost house,
the Pilgrim Monument's 100th.
Replaying the obvious for the off-center crowd.
And, of course, the scripts, always the scripts -
to consider to edit to create
grounded in small (under 100 notes) electronic compositions,
a few improvised or composed on the fly.
