My jacket leaks feathers
that dance in ways I fathom,
meandering like sprites
or supernaturally suspended.

My jacket freely spills its guts.
Others burden my attention.
Distracted, they swat a feather,
so I keep the holes unmended.

A floating feather is irresistible, though for me, to catch one is more fun than to swat at it repeatedly.

I must find this jacket of yours. This infernal solitaire is driving me mad.  

...just bein' Bluesy
