“weary blues”
this poem… a
late night
(slow jazz)
montage…moon
gazing at midnight
meandering roses
(alto sax)
boxes filled with
old
notebooks…
(muted trumpet)
scattered over ambiguous
(cello)
bookshelves
screens…. glowing
my spot on the
couch with soft eared comfort
dogs
red
eyes at
4:00 am…
neon mind
dreaming of
words self centered
weary…
(piano)
drifting…

I love this, the cadence, the descent (or maybe it’s ascent!) from moon to mind to dream, the orchestration of the instruments….It’s brilliant!
Thank you so much. I can hear Dave Brubeck in my mind.
Like the improv free flowing structure and short lines & the whole poem!
