trying to clean away
the mess    the fingerprints 
of yesterday
I gently wipe my glasses
with a small lintfree cloth

A tanka after Machi Tawara

And today’s musical offering, here’s Colorado born, now Stockholm-based organiste Kali Malone with their 2019 album Sacrificial Code. (YouTubers) I have posted this album before but I just love writing to its slow evolving progressions, so I thought you might enjoy it again.
