LONG BACK AND LONG AGO
-(go listen to more than you know')-
-(go listen to more than you know')-
It wasn't always like this :
When Sonny Rollins was still
alive we cankered across the
dry-mop floor on the wooden
stage at Dando's. Improvisation
like that was sweet. He let me
take a seat. (Here short time passes).
I sat and listened. (Here it overlaps).
My keys were vamping. He be-bopped
around. Liquor shining clear in a glass.
-
These are Fall dates I remember;
Autumnal beseechings of the outer
reachings. 'Things like this will never
happen again.' I said that to him.
'Sometimes, sweet shit comes around
twice.' He sheared a lasting note.
