mark weber - I love the blues
March 22nd, 2008 22:33 Monsieur K.
I love the blues
especially at night
you get that old blues guitar
and tear it up, just beat
hell out of it, turn it
every which way but loose,
just wreck the place, drink
all the whisky chase
all the white people off
yell & scream & hollar
holding on for dear life
yr eyeballs roll into the back of yr head
only the whites show, only God can
see you now, and he’s rolling dice
with the devil to see who gets to
take you home, you pop a string
roll down easy with a walking grinder
of a bass line and a steak bone
teasing with the high notes
of eternity

you see the hip hop dudes
stutting in the crosswalk while you wait
for the light to change, their duckbill hat on
sideways, baggy pants, huge white tennis
shoes, talking (rapping?) on their cell phones
trying to act cool —
you can see they haven’t quite figured out, yet
how to look cool while on a cell phone
one arm raised like a duck flapping
the other arm with the hand turned like a Don
Martin character in MAD magazine –
I’m from an older generation who think being cool
is not being encumber’d by constraints like somebody
tracking you down on a phone, like
you’re on a leash –
You don’t need to talk all the time, talking too
much is weird, and nervous, like
you’re scared

Some weeks ago I published an raindog poem called Eyes like Mingus and I found a great painting from Rigsby Smith to illustrate the posting and he contacted me today and I went again to his web site to learn more about him. And you should do the same! He is a sort of an musicsmith and an visual artist as well. Check out his page here… and please send him an e-mail under rigsbysmith at hotmail dot com and ask him to send you the ‘hidden-link’ to get his latest album for free. Sounds great? Great Sounds !
