see the hard edged lens on the dog eye
but the soft edge of the dog fur;
see the hard edged right jaw line of the woman
but the soft edges of the hanging earrings;
see the hard edge shinny nose of the pup
but the soft edges of the blades of grass;
see the hard edge of the left nostril
but the soft edge of the eyebrows.
It’s all about texture: liquid, bushy, bony, tunnel-y, or electrified!

Music is an art form whose medium is sound and silence.
Its common elements are pitch (which governs melody and harmony),
rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation),
dynamics,
and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture.
The word derives from Greek μουσική mousike; “art of the Muses”.
Fugi
beats a bass drum.
Hawaii
strums calypso.
Catskills
sound the violins.
The Rockies
trumpet horns.
The Smokies
shush their castinettes:
an Appalachian song.
The timbre of the sounds resounds:
redwoods’ bass,
driftwood’s chant.
