poem

The Night I Missed Yo La Tengo 



The guy in line ahead of us outside

The Blind Pig twenty odd years ago said

it best when asked to sum up the band’s sound.

“Ira can’t decide if he wants to make  

noise or play soft”, unlike the ease with which

we made the choice to bail on the line, call

it a night, much to my everlasting

chagrin.  Sublime dissonant hushed feedback.
