Piano Rain

By Vi Ransel (Page 1 of 1 pages) 1 comment

Vi Ransel

Piano Rain

Cut-crystal 16th notes
scamper and dangle
drop
splink
twinkly-plink
splank
spangle

mingle and dance
in a pool of window panes

disentangle

fingers wrangle piano lingo
from a hip Little Dipper
tickle ivory dimples
that dive and make ripples
in the Tiffanypizzazzangle
cascade
which
is
jazz.......

"In Bottom-Up, Rob Kall offers a blueprint for human surviving and thriving that everyone can follow. Using personal stories from his many famous contacts (from Capra to Quinn), he shows how in every aspect of life we can reconnect with that which is in our DNA by replacing our artificial and oppressive hierarchical priorities via a return to a consciousness based on the kind of egalitarian relationships that we honored for most of human history."
