Stage Set

" Stage Set "

by Suzán Jiván

for Stanislaus Dubowski

Countless hours
with just a few props and no-nonsense
chesty intensity ascending into falsetto
half-voiced with intentional breathiness
at the beginning and at the end
in a gargantuan mechanical set
filled with mandatory laudatory torrents
of high-pitched intricate whistling
masterfully performed
through long, thin fingers.
