I dream in the essence of blue Soar into the starry night I Excise the phantasm of original sin Move slowly to a beat Laid down by the jazz gods Torn from their sharpened bite I float on heavy air That cradles my being in waves of sound Music rages through my body As I slide down on the wings of angels And Spin between notes blown in heavenly delight I morph into space Float gently by the sun Lost in the love of all i see And taste and smell and feel Can this be real I am a changeling A songbird who blows his tune And howls his madness to the moon I feast on gentle staccato rhythms And casually dance as the willows whine So go ahead and bow before your God Because i choose mine Not so much a holy being As a cosmic note played out in infinite time

Blues For Coltrane
I dream in the essence of blue Soar into the starry night I Excise the phantasm of original sin Move slowly to a beat Laid down by the jazz gods Torn from their sharpened bite I float on heavy air That cradles my being in waves of sound Music rages through my body As I slide down on the wings of angels And Spin between notes blown in heavenly delight I morph into space Float gently by the sun Lost in the love of all i see And taste and smell and feel Can this be real I am a changeling A songbird who blows his tune And howls his madness to the moon I feast on gentle staccato rhythms And casually dance as the willows whine So go ahead and bow before your God Because i choose mine Not so much a holy being As a cosmic note played out in infinite time
