Dancing With A Girl by ~magamo:iconmagamo:



Her tattooed left sleeve flashing like sunlit cathedral glass
Her black hair whirling dervish slaps my face twice every pass
Her faceted earrings are stars in armatures of brass

Her pale green eyes have hooked me like a punk freebasing crack
Her music's in my bloodstream like the saxophone's attack
I'm prone to nasty habits when I hear The Bitch Is Back

Author's Comments

Why do we always have to add comments? "Why?" I ask. Who could have imagined that an artist's mandatory self-congratulatory post-rationalization would be a good idea? What fevered mind could have calculated that this misbegotten mandate would result in a net artistic benefit? Especially when the piece in question is so completely self-explanatory that any additional verbiage is entirely redundant! Is entirely repetitious! Is entirely surplus and superfluous! In fact, it detracts from the integrity of the work by insinuating a disturbing distraction between the artist and the viewer.

Much like this rant.

"Joseph Machlis says that the blues is a native American musical and verse form, with no direct European and African antecedents of which we know."

Perhaps it's merely my initial misreading of this first line that raised an eyebrow at the notion that the blues might have had at least three parental cultural influences, rather than the more-usual two. The blues wasn't concieved in a vacuum tube, nor as the result of biological intercourse. Perhaps its virtual DNA derived from the soil of souls from three continents; preventing analytical attribution to only one or the other of two.
