MILES DAVIS PROGRAM

 

 

listening

to a radio program

about Miles Davis

and having

to hop out of bed

butt naked

and scramble

for a notepad and pen

to jot down some thoughts

 

It’s a work night

and it’s after midnight

and I’ll wearily need

to drag my ass

out of bed early

and yet I know

it’s the right thing to do

to switch on the light

and rabidly complete a poem

about hopping out

of bed

to Miles music

shortly after midnight

just to write a poem

No, You Had On Houseshoes

Apparently feet are erotic, so the imagery is preserved. Very cool poem. Miles is smiling.  :D

I don't wear my slippers to bed.  I usually forget to wear them walking around the apartment too
