Billboard on Hill

The wind that whisks the people through the city
Fills their heads with thoughts as well,

The tenuous and discontinuous
Multi-tasked facts, spontaneous conjecture,

Memories conveniently retrieved
And inconclusively released ...

The wind must cultivate these reveries 
In the moment before they flee

As if a needle dropped in the spin
Would reveal a symphony,

But there’s only the bluster of the wind
And the face of Dudamel like an archon.
