Hat of Red

~

I sit here
in my hat of red
feeling blue

oh how I wish
ill-tempered weather
would ensue

to drive the joyful
all around
to indoor spaces

so I’d be spared
the pain
of smiling faces

and the bitter
bitter memory
of losing you

    • Miles’ Blues

    ”Oh man, I miss this titan’s genius, his magic — how I miss his soul!”


    Miles Davis

     

    Miles’ Blues

    ~

    Miles’ tone is velvet blue
    that cries
    sweet as angel’s tears
    that seeks
    the truth of a hidden heart
    that haunts
    the bruised soul of loss
    that frets
    the truths of life
    that kisses
    tender as a lover’s dream
    that burns
    with passion’s fire
