esther phillips, suzanne vega, patti page, and sam cooke. ursula rucker, annie lennox, sarah vaghan, and the temptations. music is all around me, swirling in my head as i sleep, singing out my mouth when i drive. hard to block it out even if i wanted to, i've spent so much of my life listening to it. i love it, like a second part of me, constant friend, suspenseful mystery. a friend of mine told me there ought to be music playing everywhere, so there's a constant soundtrack to our lives. there is. just try to find some silence. pay attention to the music around you, whether the cars driving by, or your own footsteps, the sounds mixing in ways nobody intended, but have simply happened. try to enjoy it; it might take your mind off your own blues.
