Henry's Cellar


from the ABC set Down the line.

Smooth as gravel voice
sucked from her soul
hitting the notes
that make me shiver.
All at once we’re in a cloud
Horn, sax -
mighty sound they deliver.
Henry’s cellar hot and loud

Rhyme, rhyme we’re rhyming….

Sexy moves - body grooves
vibrations coming from the band.
People dance we mingle sweat
Dancing, display - nothing planned
Touching hands we won’t forget

Stretch, stretch we’re stretching….

Intelligence goes ape like this
Seamy, steamy on the edge
Subie singing - clear and strong,
tiptoeing along the ledge,
get together in the throng

Deep, deep we’re deeper….

Crescendos of sound abound
dissolving all our boundaries.
Take a sample from this cup
real life and backed up memories,
drawn in and taken up

Bend, bend we’re bending….

Ceiling’s low - red and black
Getting high on wine and beer,
we’re present and we’re keen,
eyes are bright and mind is clear
want to be part of the scene

Flow, flow we’re flowing….

Swirl, swirl with every beat
twirl, twist those singing feet.
Be the sound - breathe the noise
all night create that state,
end of show and long applause.
Don’t care if it’s really late

Love, love we’re loving….

Can't beat a sexy tenor sax... and I defy anybody male or female not to be sexy behind one. Nice piece Ray.
