The Hyphae

Evenings, Midnights

A poem by George Szirtes
Music by Robert Severin


Those empty evenings
when time sits on its bare hands
and closes its mouth.

Those evenings waiting
for a midnight that never
arrives. Those evenings 

when world holds its breath
hoping history turns up
with gifts of kindness

so long overdue.

Evenings, Midnights

A Chetco Legend

I'm a songwriter, singer, guitarist and also play the clarinet. My album, 'Postcard from Budapest' is a collection of stories and personal reflection drawn from episodes of Hungary's 20th century history. I am engaged in a number of diverse collaborations with other songwriters, poets and writers from around the world. One of these projects resulted in a Nashville release in January '23. .
