33 ⅓ RPM
for John Coltrane
One plays the saxophone
another the stereo
and writes poems
listening to the other one
dead now, playing
as if he were alive
and remembers
he heard the one who plays the saxophone
playing it alive
but nother more of that performance
dead now, for them both
one of whom plays the saxophone
as if he were alive
the other of whom writes poems
listening to the other one
dead now, playing the saxophone
leaving it behind
