" Romantic Seriousness "

Romantic seriousness
merging love celebration and memory
while leaning heavily on ambiguity
and asterisked pangs of feeling
old and ugly becoming a little fuzzy
after wondering
yet ultimately conjuring up
earthly intensity
by spring boarding
out of hard-bop mode
emerging unbowed
bouncing up and down
with raw stripped-down rhythms
devoided of frills
patchy and compassionate
embellished by essential influences
with theatrical leanings
transitioning from silk
plastic apparel lighted
by dazzling paper lanterns...
