Birth of Octave
Dominoes are hanging, like 88 wind-chimes, inside a
Record shop window; whereinto an old Irish priest, once a dreamer of becoming
Michelangelo, or Liszt the virtuoso, today called
'Father Manyon,' is gazing, recalling the scented
Solitary pine, on the hillside of his home town; whereunder he used to recite
La Belle Dame sans Merci, often so much wishing to
See the pale sighing face, oh, that face of the childish poem-writer,---
Dominoes, right at this moment, all start shivering, on the wind, also swinging, then tapping, one by one, onto the reflecting window-pane.
