When the wood touches
my lips
my whole body trembles--
triplet trebles drip quickly
out....
In my head,
I sound nothing
like the spheres surrounding
the guitar's melancholy,
mellow below comes above
and I WAIL.....
sailing these sounds
swaddling the drumbox beat
to a crescendo
exercising all the ills
I've swilled and spilled--
FILLING
the house
FILLING my self....
radiating away all thoughts
of doubt.
a reminder of the Bird 'Tranes
a reminder of the names
I used to sing......
Silence
seems like such a foreign concept again.
