Another paint chip poetry challenge from Linda Kruschke at “Another Fearless Year”
jazz player works
as server in clatter
of greek restaurant;
smells of saffron and
grease, noisy demands
feel like a black hole
he got sucked into. it’s
not his dream job but
his lion heart, inspired
by ivory-petaled songs
of spring snowdrops,
composes after hours
a new saxophone solo
to make his spirit rock.

I love this. So descriptive, I felt like I was right there in that Greek restaurant.
