we Sorrow, we Blues
By Bill Marable
“If you want to make beautiful music; you must play the black and white keys together....”.
Richard M. Nixon
Ours has been the black
bone, the flat the
base of the melody
The sharp explosions
contrasting against the
pale tones of the home keys
The ‘Harmony Makers’
solutions important
enough to be missed
But not so much
adored that we sometimes
perform out of tune
It is then in
off-Key flats we
sorrow, we Blues
