AUDIO OF THE DAY: Tonnus Oosterhoffs invitation to be SILLY TOGETHER (trans. Paul Vincent) bit.ly/1of7vCw SILLY TOGETHER What do you want me to write about Ask it today Stand hunched + crouch by a mouse, dead. gnawed in the neck by four beetles, orange compass points, very, very softly whirring. a constantly repeated not naming Helicopter. Yes, helicopter. Not at all; the reverse. Hands off, dirty old man. Now my boy lies beside me in the heather And points out what he sees in the clouds And so on with St. Andrews crosses, beehives, crossing cauliflowering clouds with a Union bike, child at the front. The crossing is sensitive. Bumpety-bump. Yes, isnt it? Bumpety-bump. Soft tyres. A bee whizzes past in the wind. A blackcap talks loud in the bushes, senseless on the wind branch. like glimmerings fade Bumpety-bump, isnt it, Daddy? What? Helicopter. Yes. Silly together is being silly together silly together.
