about opera
geoffrey brock
                 fuggirmi io sol non so
 
 
in the real world, 1 is undesigned;
 here it's high art. after we find our seats, 
 silence our cells and smooth our 2 minds,
 and just before the curtains rise, houselights
 
go out. we vanish, and before our eyes 
 adjust, a splendid spectacle begins
 in which we're borne, again, into the lives
 of others -- figures whose shaded joys and pains
 
might be, for these three hours, ours. yet
 what can we hope to understand of them?
 words in a strange, old tongue (il fazzoletto!)
 shine through the wordless music as through a scrim
 
by turns 3 and blindingly 4 --
 words whose sources are masks, mouths 5 wide.
 still, some intelligence like a welder's current
 leaps the orchestra pit (where shadows hide
 
that pulsing drum, those lacerating strings),
 and something is spilling, something even grander,
 perhaps, than life, from the woman who now sings, 
 now dies, as passion fills white space around her,
 
fills us, and tears are spilling down our faces --
 there's too much light, it's all too brightly lit!
 kind curtains fall, and a governed dark replaces
 all light but the glow of the pages in the pit.
