roll rahsaan
rolling out of ohio
make the lions smile
saxophone clusters
mile after mile
gut bucket stride piano wiles
sawdust symphonies beguile
bop to swing to stride
the stritch glides
and the fearful hide
sing into the flute
of worlds which collide
call thee kokopelli
spirit of hunchbacked hopi
who flies the earth
with flute and sees
manzello tangerine melodies mellow
as a cubist formation of horns
form a grand central station
born a new nation
in inflated teardrop orchestration
the orbit of elvin's snare drum
rounds saxophone solar trick sums
jaki's black key meteors stun
richard davis bass runs
what orchestra on a hill?
what mystical dreams of will?
despair? kirk brings lunar repair
a rare bee
brewing honey
from flowers of we
and secrets
never scared easily
kirk pulled melodies from trees
snatched rhythms from the breeze
willow weep for me
as we ascend in ecstasy
pillow keep my dreams
we’ll seek them in night’s reverie
are you ready to go? because
“we’re going everywhere”
green is the color
of my true love's mind
yellow the color
of the saxophone climb
a spiral sign
a nautilus shell
curves a bit like a horn's bell
finds three horns
are better than one
oceans of impetus
all rise with the sun
saxaphonium to tenor
switch to the stritch
leave a hole in the melody
where the moon can
break
through
and a star
fall into
wherein
we can
reach you
