Ode to John Cage
Ode to John Cage
by Jim Benz
very much silence
very much silence
very much silence
very much s
still more silence
still more silence
still more silence
still more s
not a whistle
nor a squeal
not a shout
nor a cry
only s
(what is
this sound that lingers
in s

right on. Very much silence indeed. This poem could also be dedicated to Miles Davis’ work in the year or two leading up to Bitches Brew. Music is all about silence. . . or should I say, silence makes music possible.
I didn’t know what to think when I first saw this, but now I think its a great idea.
