Is jazz an art form?

Question

Life as an Art Form

Writing poetry

It isn’t nice I tell you

It isn’t flowers and kittens and butterflies

Oh, it can be…but not for me

It's ups and downs

Wrongs and rights

Trips and falls

Unscheduled flights

Of the cortex spin cycle vortex

Tornado like forces that filter and give

Sporadic glimpses of the lives I live

As the elevator sling shots pass the floors

Ejecting thoughts from behind trapped doors

Shoe boxes spilled of places I’ve been

Who I was where and what I was when

Symphonies of dis-chorded notes

WAIT…THAT”S IT

It’s jazz man

It’s life man

Full of strife man

It’s Dizzy blaring at 90 Miles an hour

Coltrane stepping to the edge of tones sour

Dissonant tracks on Byrd’s broken wings

Farlow and Django plucking at my heart strings

Harmonious playback of all of these things

That brings me back to today

Feeling this way

So if it’s all right

With my pen

Let me play

For You

Somebody is in the Zone! I was groovin' with that number. That funk is all over the bass. I kinda laid out a little solo there after " WAIT THAT'S IT". I don't think I'd enjoy playing drums on that, though.

I'd like to reserve two tickets, center front.
