NEW POEM in the exquisites reading series anthology 💙

A cover for exquisites volume 5, with text on letter beads and a cyanotype of leaves as the image

Reuben Gelley Newman

Enharmonic

From the high island of his mind the boy attempts to whistle, to coax air at such speed, his lips at such curve, as to suggest pitch-a task he has failed at all his life-and with it to summon the languid dog of his dreams, who waits by the kitchen counter, begging for chicken stew, which he cannot give because in this incarnation he cannot cook, or eat, or sleep, or hold another man, or tether himself to anything but song-but that is not enough to live on-he cannot subsist on even the steadiest drone set from the accordion, nor the swell of a major triad, nor an array of intervals strung like lights between the trees, fluttering fifths, sevenths, octaves, tenths-not even a luminescent cluster of pitches so close as to be almost the same:

less than a half step, not yet a quarter tone, mere cents apart, and to think that once he wanted another man to reside as closely on this scale with him, their frequencies not just sympathetic but identical-he whistles, weakly,

after a surfeit of soundless air. The dog looks but does not come.

“One of poetry's great effects, through its emphasis upon feeling, association, music and image – things we recognize and respond to even before we understand why – is to guide us toward the part of ourselves so deeply buried that it borders upon the collective.”
