alice's wonderland
mingus jarring jazz
magic tunnel chute
o my desire is spreading
sweet notes
raucous jiving down
ears tuning to the treat
if i could eat this sound
i would be drugged
into the fancyland
of new tunes
never tasted
fruit
tender meat
purple peals
all-night dreams
if i were feathered
charlie
i would sing
of you in birdland
