Excerpt from The Gap - solo performance by Michael Rauter
texts by Daniella Strasfogel
A beetle, a bird
A thrumming, a rustle
A crackling, a wobble
A running, a babble
......
The drowning
And the undrowning
Frantic fish preparing for battle
The drowning then the undrowning
Shut up the drapes
Draw the door
Close the woods
A knobble, a crickle
A stumble, a stopping
A whoosh and a whistle
.......
The seeping and sopping
the hooting and shushing
the wide slow rushing
the drowning undrowning
