Neverlove of fingers splayed and just a stray of pinkie black intensity of down the scale as if fingers comin' back-- won't be there at all-- and hammer just a lone shark note lingering from bottom lip stuck there with the superglue drooling heaven's used-to-be as if I were not here at all... This--it is--it is, y'dig? the moment captured that I live-- practice scales and hammer flats-- and sing to me my scrambled eggs. And? I take my coffee black. |

Made me smile! oh...fresh ground with green cardamom, black; when I am feeling indulgent I use a little vanilla sugar. ...a little sugar is always nice... |

I don't drink coffee, but "sing to me my scrambled eggs" grabbed me. Very nice. -Venus [This message has been edited by visitvenus (06-15-2003 01:27 AM).] |

smiling--um...another memory of mine. (I try to write them down before I lose them again--  )Just a little piece about a little Jazz club called "Snaps" that I used to stumble into to eat breakfast--all moldy brick and smoke, but the music and food were GREAT... Thanks for reading. I just wanted to show ya'll the place.  |

It was actually the last stop before I crept to the crypt--AND? I never actually ordered scrambled eggs, always the egg white omelet--the scrambled eggs was a reference to a song the band would sing to me, as they said I had a brain the quality of such.  |

How many visions do you play where be fingers curled, or splayed dipping in the ebony or nails of red on ivory you brought back love's symphony and a tear at love flung free....  thanks, hon...I needed this. |

Thanks for sharing this little trip down memory lane, Karen. I enjoyed visiting your old stomping grounds.  "My friends are my estate." |

I can almost hear this one done in a Jazz mode, and I love it!!!! I'm another player who has spent many a long night filling up my cup while banging out a new tune!! Great work here!! ~V~ P.S....the reference to scrambled eggs reminded me of the theme song to Frasier...another jazzy number! I speak from the Voice Of Experience |

VOE? Don't tell the guys, but I actually like that song better. The one they played was an instrumental improv, generally heavy on the bass line. *snaps* to all for reading.  |
