Sinatra

.

sounded like 

agency, like 

choice, like 

the slow settling 

of synchronicity 

as it patterned over

noise…

.

a fitted suit, 

a flicked cigarette, 

a voluntary death.

.

.

It's funny, 

I've listened to a lot of music,

but I can say with an easy

confidence

.

that he was never really a favorite.
