During some downtown window shopping I spied this mannequin outfitted with an instrument as a prop. There's a koan in there somewhere. Maybe you could write it. What is the sound of no breath blowing no reed? What would yours be?

Honestly now, what working sax player have you ever seen wearing a Brooks Brothers suit? it's an odd pairing. Perhaps a window dresser's take on "when worlds collide." :-)
