  Simply add a harmonica to this. Much better.

Again I honour Rienzi Crusz. Waterloo Poet

Image
  Elegy for an Orange How your roundness throbbed to titillate, dress of furious saffron took my eyes; and your skin, soft as diaper, a snow-flake to the touch, flooded my island of nerves, collected water in my mouth. But I could not love you. I could not seduce you, I wanted you in totality, a chemistry of assimilation. You had to die tortured for your exotic perfections: my thumb in your throat, one heave, and I burst you open. Blood spilled. I tasted you limb by limb wanting you only in the tongue’s orgasm of your sun-ripe death. Taken from the collection, Elephant and Ice (poet had emigrated from Sri Lanka to Waterloo, Ontario in 1965.

  Forget your lessons on clear single note melody. Blues gets messy and layback and slurry.

  What a life. What a story. And all the fine music…The  Edmund Fitzgerald, Did She Mention My Name, Sundown, Don Quixote, If you could read my mind, Rainy Day People… Many a sunny day up North seemed even brighter with his songs on the radio.

Happily Rediscovering Twila Paris (back in the 80's)

  It was the summer of 1982. We were staying for a while at the cottage of Hilary's  family in Port Stanley. Friends from the Chatham church came down. They had a praise ministry and travelled from time to time. Karen and Wayne. They brought with them a bunch of cassettes. Keith Green, B. J. Thomas, Twila Paris, Larnelle Harris, Steve Green, Paul Wilbur, Evie. Very significant impact. Lyrics sent by Appointment.
