from The Opera Company
The impresario
Consigned to the pit
Energy, mass. He was prouder
Of effects that called for
The voice like a green branch
Lifted in gales,
The fat, scaled voice aflicker
From a cleft, the soaring,
Glancing fountain-voice, the voice
Of stone that sank;
This afternoon's effulgence,
Last night's crystallizations.
Season after season, swallowtail,
Unborn seal, pearl stomacher,
We flowed through slow red vestibules
To hear the great ones in their prime and ours.
Now if, of a night, our box is empty
And Chinese students fill the impresario's,
His cosmos wheezes into bloom regardless,
The seal outwits the airhole, and the all-star casts
Of polar ice break up, shining and drowning
Unconscionably in the summer sea.
– James Merrill (1969)
