Jazz

By J.D. Tuckley

We got blues down here slap

Rolling in a misty evening bass bottom

Tone so sweet imaginings

Small towns are traps--find your space

Blending the seams of foggy old mutterings

Wail baby wail or moaning like tears flowing

Drop bombs on my substitutions

Bobbing and weaving sweet nights are for this

Now burn down those changes

Sublime definitions raw and merging

Nothing so subtle as you my love

Jazz—the mystery of consciousness

Reborn on an August night as your fingers

Tap the keys of my meaning

And propel my cares into the thinner air of joy

Baby you glow embers showering down on my

Tin foil hat porkpie night for all to hear

Thanks for the poem. May all of our cares be propelled into the thinner air of joy. A very nice touch. Keep writing and sharing with the readers of appindie.
