LADY DAY SPRING TONED - Ronald Stone


LADY DAY SPRING TONED - Ronald Stone

Lady Day Spring-toned
april-warmly
bluesky-silently
"Heart in my soul
has got this solo"
(Charley Parker-birds
overhead
overbird
overhead
overheard
(a-flat minor fart-
ing perfume
of magenta smells
from a far corner
of a microsmic universe)
stand still
In nowhere air
Lady Day's heart
in her soul
(21-dimensionless-
dimension overtones
from 5 dimensional
Pagliacci scenes
we see only 3 dimensionally)
solos
Phony American Charley Morality
ate my flesh
but my soul was
West of horizons to
phony American Charley Morality
Everybody knows trouble
double-trouble
triple-trouble
I've seen
like a motherless child
traveling light
through 5 dimensional scenes
foolish fools
see as 3 dimensional scenes
I hungered for you're -my-
thrill-don't-explain love (no, don't explain love)
I thirsted for easy-living-
for-you-love
Trying to find love
found me pain
Trying to give love
gave me pain
Spikes spiking skin pain
swarms of insects stinging pain
Starfire pain
burning in every pore
burning in every blood vessel
burning in every bone marrow
Pain eating like cancer
Pain screaming so loud it's silent
I'm gone now
I'm gone now
Wow I'm gone
21st heaven melody !
Wink-smile-wink rhythm
Cosmic harmony
All 3 bound me
in future futureless
silent sounds
Love's strange fruits
in some other spring
where no pain sings
here in nowhere
