epiphanies
strata of sounds
one disengages and wraps
around the others (J)
a new cocoon
seamless and unmatched (L)
silk unravels
on a turn of breeze
honeysuckle (I)
the solo reveals
saxophone glimmers gold
sunlight laughter (M)
across and through time
contrapuntal (J)
notes in transition
caught by summer clouds
emerge as epiphanies (L)

Sunday at the Jazz Festival
I shed my old jacket
for an eccentric rhythm of DNA
even rust dances (L)
a riot of notes
jazz horn heats the stadium (I)
pulse and collision
double helix rises
new instructions (J)
desirous dissonance
from inception blue to the bone
homage to catharsis (L)
cacophonous cymbals clang
fuse drumbeats to toes tapping (SE)
dancing on Sunday
we are notes rising
climbing the double helix (M)
-- Leslie McKay, Ingrid Bruck, Julie Naslund, SE Ingraham & Marianne Szly
