Hildegarde

 November 18, 2022

Second day of stainless, unmodulated blue light. 

The drama with the dehumidifier was entirely my invention. It had run so consistently that I forgot that it would turn off automatically when the basement was dry. 

Nine hours of Hildegarde von Bingen available on You Tube. Every now and then an commercial featuring Taylor Swift hawking her record interrupts the music. A very weird juxtaposition. 

Ned Rorem is dead. His Paris and New York Diaries were important cogs in the machine of my brain.
