Cultural Arts on the Move in SB

�

By Kerry Methner, PhD / CASA

�� For info on the Lobero Theatre visit www.lobero.com For info on the New Vic visit www.ensembletheatre.com

The ﬁrst moments of waking this morning I was a boy, wanting my mother and father to be getting dressed in the next room. Mom would limp ahead to the kitchen, Dad would stay in his undershirt and lather up a close shave. Boxes of cereal would appear, rhubarb, a man with a tie. We would sit down to the radio news, the whole world could be neatly blamed on JFK. I wanted it all over again, that time before the assassination of childhood. In those moments of waking I did not bleed, there were no thorns, the intimidations were clear and full. I was all the way across the room before I came to my latter self, for a while I was very safe.

�� BURN VICTIMS The oak trees by the creek are sweating blood. There where the ﬁre passed through, pressed by the wind, their barks are blackened, and oozing through the singe, red beads of sap drip sorrowingly down to ashes. If we knew Gethsemane were not a garden anymore and wept itself, the knotty foreheads of each burl contracted in one brow of woe, our prayer would not be for life’s cup but merely that our hearts might burn within us. Seared and scarred, we’d bleed in hope of olives buried deep among the roots, where what remains may rise.

and wondered what was left of us, now that our old house on the hill had vanished in a night of ﬂame. In the kitchen, you lifted plates and silverware that were strangely heavy in your hand. And in the darkened living room our daughter sat with a cautious suitor who settled in like a rain of ashes. This shady little home downtown, somnolent beside the buzz of motorcycles on the street – it was a refuge, a hospice or a hospital we scarcely knew. Some of us got better there, some got worse, but we lay our heads in gratitude in that dim place, in that year of shadow, and today as I shift my feet on the curb, peering through the open door, I say this prayer into the past, I nod my thanks.

�� Art Is A Fire Art is a fire, for it burns the heart; it is a phoenix from the ashes rising. So do not think it can be felt in part, a cheerful blaze upon the hearth, advising the viewer of some sweet domestic charm. It is a conflagration on a slope that sweeps like silent tidal waves, whose harm we face without a single, embered hope that we will ever be one whit the same. Kinkade, you are a liar. We will go where darkness visible makes Milton’s flame, where David’s heat makes Michelangelo to know the shape of shoulder in the bone. Art is a pillar of the finest fire; it leads us into exile, all alone, where we must sacrifice upon the pyre our smoldering flesh, the scorched and sooted bone. Or if it leads us to a desert home, it leads us where we do not wish to stray, where broken statues lie inside the poem and lone and level sands stretch far away. Art is a fire, for it burns the heart; it is a phoenix from the ashes rising. So do not say it purifies in part; we are consumed without our realizing art is a fire, for it burns the heart.

�� Pausing Out Front Someone else lives here now, Cadillac in the garage, chicken wire stretched across the wrought-iron fence to cage a poodle prancing through the open door.

It does not bark. White rocking chairs salute a dangled ﬂag on the porch. That is where our son sat through the passing light of afternoons to marvel at the quiet pace of his own breathing, our frayed retriever at his feet. Behind that porch I rested on a cool, dark couch
