Morning Jam

I played your River Maya
on my hi-fi stereo
this morning.

It's cool--like Coke;
I thought so.

Maybe I was just fascinated
not so much of its rhythmic gait
than by the very fact that
it's your favorite.

Or perhaps,

well, I utterly missed you.
And that's enough reason
for me to listen to
and enjoy your kind of music--

And to think that
I kept on playing it
back and again,
and again.
