My fantasy: to play the saxophone.
My soul poured out in jazzy melodies;
soft, supple nuance, sensual in tone.
I picture in my mind sweet harmonies -
aural aromas of sad elegies,
or spicy Latin rhythms of romance,
or reveries that make the people dance.

I'd never heard an angel
Until I heard her sing
The song of heaven came through her voice
An aural diamond ring
The first time that it happened 
I stood there mesmerized
I'd never known such splendor could
On earth be realized 
And talk about charisma?
Graceful and composed
And talk about her beauty?
No one else comes close...

Silent density has settled, 
Like an aural veil.
Ennui bores me with her hungry stare...
And I stare back.
Her contact is a barren performance.
A Goddess pulls at my strings, 
But I am music-less.
She will wait in blackness.
Vivacity will, again, pull tight in me, 
But until then, 
I will sit and submit to my mood.

A sliver moonlight 
icon’s silhouette 
rooted to the spot 
sitar sensei pop
art venue dye stamped

wistful sly grin 
masks grey tinged beard 
svengali imp 
of fretboard glee

awestruck throng’s
dry cough whinge
stage plank creak

taut nails
skydive

Thump, thump, thump,
Like the beat of a heart,
The speakers scream and howl,
As they shake the car apart.

What are those words I hear,
They hide behind the beat,
Assaulting my aural senses,
As you pass me in the street.

Sex and drugs,
Violence and hate,
Strange themes for a song,
That you think is great.

You call this music art,
I just call it rap,
But some have the opinion,
That it’s nothing more than ......

Your hoped for an aural jump
from commencement letters abroad
Your idealised viewpoint of the West
minus the 2.4 children,
and your multilingual approach
even German for extra flourish
inches in Deutschland for cumulative security,
I'm not interested in a Trans Asiatic Plains romance
Im a confirmed Bachelor
of 42 years standing,
I don't know how you got my email
But cease and desist
better concentrate on your own menfolk...

She's enigmatic jazz
Duke's "Sophisticated Lady"
An original, unrepeatable moment
Ella's scat
spontaneous, extemporaneous
Melodic variation
Rhythm like a pulse
Miles' s dissonant resolution
Ornette's free-form come to life
A nuanced persona
informed by her own harmonic base
Billie's smoky ode to Miss Otis sans regrets
Like Bird when he drenched his sax with sweat
as he set the air aflame
Like aural combustion between us
too hot to be ever put out...

AURAL VERSE

An intimate moment,one mind to another as spoken verse aloud. Thus our distinctive dna drifts on the winds of euphony, unique and individually sealed, revealed in pause and undertone.
It continually strikes a contemporary chord of unconscious expression, an esoteric  sensation from within ,uncontrolled words, the taste lingers long ‘til washed away on the tides of tomorrow by the pressures of today.
