Derek Henderson is alive and well in Salt Lake City. He is co-author, with Derek Pollard, of Inconsequentia. An erasure of Ted
Berrigan’s sonnets, Thus &, is forthcoming from If P Then Q Press. At present, his favorite quote is Felipe Alfau’s comment on the
characters in his stories: “One must bear in mind that these people are creating their own life and standards.”

The three frames of the “Song” excerpted here attempt to recreate the dizzying turns of light from the Brakhage film of the same
name, of which this is a translation.
