L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

Come sashay down Bahia's streets

dada DAA dada DAA

We play the agogô.

dada DAA dada DAA

Two notes:

one high, one low.

dada DAA dada DAA

Our bodies squeezed together,
ache a third,
to sing, to sigh, to moan,
to make our music sweeter.

We move as one with syncopation,
to repeated clacks of sticks and drums.
We groove moist lips and ample hips
and begin to thrum

DAA dadaduh DAA dadaduh DAA ...

and sashay down Bahia's streets

DAA dadaduh DAA dadaduh DAA ...

to the samba beat.

Kåre Enga [177.23] (8.abril.2020)

Notes:

Agogô: The agogô bell is a fairly old instrument that originated in Africa and it’s one that produces an extremely high note. The instrument is comprised of anywhere between two and four conical shaped or truncated cones that are all linked together by a U-shaped piece of metal. The cones on an agogô bell are sized differently, and the sound that the instrument produces will depend on which cone is hit. You can hear the agogô bell in some traditional African Yoruba music.
