some might say, 'the greatest tenor saxophone player who ever lived'...

a great mountain of sky...

A great mountain of sky
The clouds roll in in all colors
Under
Blue
Salmon
Gold
Low
They roll low
Into the telephone poles
&
Into the wires
Chimneys
Seas & rivers

Robert Frost poems
To la Captain Bloom Hill
:
If one flight
Like last night low under
Clouds rolling in in all colors
Salmon
Blue
Gold
Breathe now
If one flight
;
That flight

quick sketch of van gogh's starry night...

sighs the sun...

Sighs the sun
At sunset
Sunrise
Tonight
Songs under Orion
& the rest of the stars
Venus & Cassiopeia
Play the night on oboes
Stella
Waterfront
How High the Moon

oooo deee aah aah aaah...

jazz
At the rickety yellow table
Creak
Oooo deee aah aah aaah
The
Scenes
On the cutting room floor
From sunsets walks & stairs
To sunrises swatches reds & blues
Golden
jazz
At the rickety yellow table
Creak
Oooo deee aah aah aaah
There
The Willows
Are
Whispers
Now
;
jazz
At the rickety yellow table
Creak
Oooo deee aah aah aaah

a long song...

Do you see the routine
?
The melodies in the queue
Short lists aaah
Oh
Flights out of port
Their white sails wafting
Easily
To the horizon
To the mountains
To the meadows
This
,
A long song

the coffee is done...

Sound
Coffee percolating
Cars running by
The furnace on
Not cellos
& some noise I cannot identify
Not cellos
Trumpets
Or violins
Or violas
Chet Baker
?
No
The coffee is done
