Cricket

It’s early August

& there’s this soloist,

who has never stopped

playing his body’s blues,

tireless as Muddy Waters

on guitar. Remarkable

stamina: vocalized

persistence, as if

running an all-night

singing marathon

a calling song

into night’s open mic:

I Just Want to Make

Love to You,

Love to You.

Diane Sahms-Guarnieri
