BACH COMPLEX

Gee—it's
swell

and
all—how well
the strings play

the themes—sawing

away—workman-
like—at such
symmetric
taut and
fresh teleological

arguments—
but truth

be known—all I really
want

to be told
is how?

could someone
who's simply—a little cobbler
by day—ever wind-
up—out there!

in tails!
decked-
out in black and sonorously

conducting
the whole affair?
