untitled muse 13

Blues riffs are bigger than the bible –
smoke encircles the stage
like a spectral mosaic of St. Paul’s 
guitar face –

Matthew rapping poetic about miracles 
never saw calloused brown fingers
scraping distorted angels from the cold nickel strings 
like genesis.

Notes never really die
they just join our other longings
in the back of the Bar.
