Yann Robin: Vulcano

Everywhere the breath is bullied. Society functions on this deprivation, needing it-it wants us to be out of breath, inoffensive, controllable. I am seeking a passage for breath with phrases. By writing, I sense my clarity coming back to me, as if I were blowing into a saxophone, a clarinet, or a trumpet-or, rather, as if it were them blowing in my head.
