à l’orée de la parole le poème commence par le silence entre deux haies

nous avons été dis-tu une lente forêt en marche une lente forêt de signes

nous avons été aux abois

on nous a dépouillés nous avons survécu

nous sommes écritures

nous sommes idéogrammes de l’hiver

un à un murmurent nos grands corps étêtés

nul ne sait si nous ébauchons des battements d’ailes ou si nous implorons

arbres nous sommes nous étions oiseaux

au fond de ma gorge s’épuise une mésange

au fond de ma gorge la cendre est sans mémoire la salive sans témoin

le goût des mots nous tient debout

Michaël Glück

Michael Glück

1. let everything rest the body and the body's tools

let hunger rest at the rim of the plate water in the jug thirst between lips let your eyes rest on night let your skin rest beyond its wrinkles

let the sheets hang on the line

rest

let dust rest among the words

let your hands rest on the edges of the book let

time rest on the chair wear daylight's clothes down to threads

Michael Glück is a Jewish French poet who uses literary minimalism, and this poem was inspired by the celebration of the Jewish sabbath.

Translated by Rosanna Warren, whose talk I attended today--STARSTRUCK. Just amazing.

Vocal Group With A Sense Of Humor: Wolfgang A Cappella

We admire a vocal group with a sense of humor, so we felt compelled to take a listen to the new album from Wolfgang A Cappella (@ncsuwolfgang on Twitter and https://www.facebook.com/we.are.wolfgang on Facebook) when we saw the cover art.

In the album artwork, the singers fly through the air as hand-drawn cartoon super heroes, appearing to be hurled into the air by a massive explosion. This probably has something to do with the fact that the album is called Critical Hit.

Humor aside, this is a high-energy album of well-recorded pop songs, from "Toxic" to "Since U Been Gone". We'd pay to see what these guys would do with some bodysuits and some glow-in-dark paint.

This album should not to be confused with the video game supergroup Critical Hit, although we think that producer Michael Gluck would be able to put these singers to good use in Critical Hit's next sprawling YouTube musical masterpiece.

Wolfgang A Cappella - Critical Hit!
