freestyling... because we're free.. (improvisational notes reflecting ourstory)

 

 

sitting here
at the keyboard,
lettered blue notes
flow with rhythmic melodies
inking bars of varied clefts
of poetic pitch
rising from
b flat decrescendos 
to c sharp crescendos
peaking trilling lights of truth
from a major second...

tuba blasting to depressed
notes now whining spine-tingling
wails the trane left behind
for you to forward
that we could go ahead
even when just sitting
parking
and monking around
in a blue note
frame of mind
undulating rivers
of memory bars
flowing to spirited shores
scattered with footprints
of giant steps
ancestors left back
to the beginning
enabling us to ping whole notes
from the golden hieroglyphic
improvisations of ourstory
as we beat out polyrhythmic
emotions of the love supreme
that continues to keep and sustain us:

may the heat
of the ancestors’ hearts
continue to radiate
and warm our melodic souls
with encore reverberations…
