about
Part of the Soundscape Poetry Project Album.
DREAM OF THE POEM is a love poem for someone with whom, one day, I tasted violets and shared a bottle of Domaine de Château Néant 1872 (Vieille Vignes) – an exceptional vintage and, coincidentally, the year Rimbaud was writing his ‘Études néantes’. The poem contains a reference to the Irish tradition of the ‘Aisling’, or dream-vision, itself derived from the French genre of ‘Reverdie’. The blues singer has already crossed the abyss and, with heightened ESP, sees everything, even when asleep.
