Felino A. Soriano



Approbations 806
—after Eric Dolphy’s Tenderly

Trust
of a reciprocated touch
of wind on
hand of air’s angled dexterity
leading
into various compassions of possible
indirection, splayed
but together
between versions
of an hour’s shifting premise.

A beautiful poem! Jazz working at several levels at the same time.

A great poetic interpretation of "Tenderly", which I am listening to right now:

Such alluring rhythm. I agree with Jenny, this reads like jazz.
"air’s angled dexterity" ah, so good.

Felino is as prolific as he is excellent. Another taut, evocative poem, wonderful
