It is as much the story behind the story like the pipes of redemption, with the crackle of old vinyl or the pop of a damaged CD, yet lifted from there in this extended set of short poems sung to the static of a heart beating right on time. The goof & wonder of it as the lyric segue preempts the contraband cell phone while the clincal diagnosis takes 12 steps back, turns on a dime, & queues up Louie-Louie on the iPod. Spinning the Dial by Edward Ainsworth is available now from Blue Press.
