cursive

Cursive is a style of writing in which all letters are connected. The Roman Alphabet has a cursive style. Arabic is always written in cursive.

Cursive is a Band from Nebraska that has lately been touring in the Bay Area in California. I recently was able to enjoy a show of theirs at Slims in San Francisco. They combine fascinating lyrics with amazing guitar-play and are unparalleled when experienced live. For information regarding tours, merchandise, bio, and the like, go to:

They are one of the best new (relatively) bands around, and have an impressive 5 cds and one split pressed so far. If you have a chance, you should see what you think of their sounds.

 

 

 

 

Her letters to me were a charming anachronism

folded notes on parchment paper 

sealed with wax 

 

Magnolia scented 

 

Vivid recollections of our nights together 

The curls of her cursive letters

rollling S  and looping J  

reminding me other shapes:

half moon lips 

the slope of her back
