“The singer stopped playing and went to bed
While the Weary Blues echoed through his head.

For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.”

Nothing lets up or develops.
And this is neither a bad variant nor a tryout.
This is where the staring angels go through.
This is where all the stars bow down.”
