Evocation
by
Frank Valentyn
The mechanism disappeared altogether
there was just Beethoven
a Sonata with some incidental wood
and a form in front in of it
extensions of each other
that in their interaction produced
what Ludwig had intended:
keys to something deeper
there was one quick distraction
transient vision of an ear-trumpet
and the recognition
that I no longer needed it
in hearing this the first time ever
