An online friend (teacher, poet, composer, artist, and saxaphonist) has a band. It's had a year-long hiatus for reasons. Just recently he posted a short video of the first gig in a while. It was delightful to see and hear, which made me think of what it must have been like to play with friends again after such a long time away.
On the Revival of Duke Rushmore
that time arrived
after a year of
quiet
the dance floor
flung
with neighbors
when together
we unrolled
expanded
sprawled
extended
and we blew
our blue
our raucous
together
twining and twisting
we filled
each other
with this
glorious
sound
Thank you, my friend. It was indeed a thrill. Kevin
