Subject: After the reading

I am late at home from a poetry reading
and am smoking, listening to Satie's Gnossienes
which I've probably spelled wrong
but don't care, the memory of what I've read
and heard
renders meaningless
the demonology of technique and correctness.

I don't care if I got it righ
I got it at all.
I want to play these keys
as if the computer
were a Bechstein or Bosendoerffer
let the music find itself in the scales
trace them upward and down
along my back.
