of wind and grass and dark, slow waters

and the water tasted of sky
for String Quartet

Performed by JACK Quartet

Program Note:
The heaviest things in life are holes
that are left behind

How do you carry a hole? 
What does the cloud feel when it loses itself to the
rain?

I see it floating in the water and
dip my hand in the cool mirror

I bring it to me
and the water tasted of sky
