There's a scene in

The book I'm reading,

Rim by Alexander Besher,

Which I came to yesterday,

Where a children's hospital ward

Is filled with haunting music

Coming from nowhere

A music professor identifies it

As the music of a 12th century

Mystic and composer,

Hildegard von Bingen

Tonight, listening to a song by

Jocelyn Montgomery with David Lynch

On CMJ 9/98,

Which arrived a couple of days ago,

Where she's singing a medieval chant

From her album,

Which I'd read about

When the CD arrived,

I thought "Wait a minute..."

I checked the information

On the music on Jocelyn's album ---

It was written by someone

I'd never heard of til this week,

Hildegard von Bingen
