CON MOTO

While swallowing a prenatal vitamin before bed, I’m watching an MTV interview

with Rick Ross about how

you taught him to see music in colors.

He calls you Ye, pronounced yay, dropping Kan.

Musical terms, held onto from Italian, found on printed music, begin with con

because they begin with

with.

Con espressione, con moto, become, informally, espressione, moto, spirito, affetto, dolore, forza, gran, molto, fuoco, larghezza, slancio, sordino, anima, brio, amore. Shook free.

And we should love our own sounds.

Feeling, movement, spirit, affect, sadness, force, great feeling, much feeling, fire,

broadness, enthusiasm, muted tone, feeling again, and vigor, and tenderness

or love.

Another connection between you and Italy, between you and music. Another

way to say beautiful things that I have learned tonight.

If bellies stirred before babies were big enough, mine’d be kicking.
