Instead of paper and ink,
in this digital chapbook
letters are set upon
a screen’s whiteness,
the product of trees replaced
by a medium of
electrically sourced light.
Lines written as soundscape
to be listened to while
“sheltering in place”
are meant to be heard as score
for voice and instrument,
rather than as text of
a traditionally printed poem.
