night blues by john k zimmerman Sunday, October 12, 2003 Share Print Save Become a Fan
Down the street the night blues come: capering around garbage cans and cars, circling lamp posts; vaulting fire hydrants. In the light pools the night blues romp whirling and dancing in the dampness jiving in the harsh illumination. Encountering the crowds the night blues enter making human hearts that have turned to stone calling forth dancers and singers and poets. But those who do not, can not resonate are left empty without remorse. The night blues will not stay where they are not received The night blues caper, twirl and run along To jive and to dance and make human to inspire others to poetry and to song
