as of his greyship...

Gotham a smattering wore,

granite tone, pick a hue and

play it.

Self--possessed, samadhi some

say.

founding flowers, saxing

jazz.

finding their voice, wowed

by improv.

beat boxed to a pulp--that Kid

that has it in him.

to straighten out his guts, for a

walk on some tightrope.

from here to here, name the place.

deferment of streets.
