Does it require our Western scales to find it out, Express it? Do Chinese have it? Do their pentatonic modes Confuse it? Does raising standard pitch above four-forty-two Abuse it? A puzzling heritage of some ancestral need Now useless, The sensitivity endures as might disease: Deep, traceless, Until new science spots it. Oboes sound their A, As nearly On the pitch as lip and reed and wood permit, A merely Brute approximation. In the ear itself, In what is Probably the only evidence--and that Is gratis-Arguing in favor of platonic forms, Exactly Waits the abstract tuning fork, the pure ideal. Correctly Tempered intervals, meanwhile, a compromise, But habit, Serve.

A brand bespeaks the human, cruelly perverse, But is a birthmark less so, being God-assigned? Each in its way identifies, assists to find. For thief, for slave, one’s fatal as the other. Flight Cannot lose either. Plastic surgeons may set right Or merely drive the blemish deeper in. In style The branding iron is quick; a scalpel takes a while. To smell flesh burn, to feel the chill of tissue-freeze… Does either, given the seduction and the ease Of self-deception much impact the deeper self, Or do no more than prick its continental shelf? Appearances are Rorschach blots of what we do.
