the sound this morning's breaking broken light the blues made me happysad because muddy waters do not baptize us holy wholly with salvation only part the red sea into blue and you and I sing "Halleluiah" but we're lost as heaven knows Leonard's lonely heart 'cause "love is not a victory march" I don't know how all our voices can open the soul when only the gospel in bluenotes are sent on a red letter day

This says so clearly what I couldn’t yesterday when asked if I was happy. Yes. No. Sure. Still not sleeping through the night.

A cold and broken hallelujah, but yes. It’s there and then there’s the breakthrough of Harris. Phew! Too close for comfort!

Love the blues references, muddy waters and all. This seems to be written to its own music, happysad and discordant hallelujah chorus and all–I think you describe emotions that are so much more complex to feel than our usual ones that they overwhelm us, and define the boundaries of what the heart can tell the mind so deftly here.Always a joy and an education to read you, qbit.

The red and blue references in your poem speak for the divisivness in our country today. Let us hope that red and blue can become red, white and blue again now that the cheerleader of divisiveness has been defeated.

I too love the blues references. I am on an emotional roller coaster these days. I feel I am walking a tightwire where the slightest change in balance will have me spiraling to rock bottom. Thanks for speaking what I’ve been unable to articulate.
