A poem for  Winchester Nii Tete,  a young but master percussionist
by Yuri Kageyama 
fingertips  
that moment 
sound spills 
bouncing bubbles of invisible gems 
exploding softly from warm antelope skin
sparkling 
through the dark air
fragrance of a forgotten African flower
roosters, stripes in squares, 
spilling on rolls of fabric unfolding 
black on Kandinsky beige, 
red on blue,
sound 
unseen but seen   
no mistake
inside 
full 
complete 
in a single stroke 
understanding all
generations and generations speak
sound   
simply  
by your touch
