Tribute to "Aura" by Miles Davis
© 2003 Eric C. Lind

::Intro::

Quiet screams of reverberating guitar over

::White on Black:: formalities.

:: Yellow:: Fingertips from cigar smoke

::Orange:: juice with champagne and

Bloody :: Red:: Marys

Glean on ::Green:: linens.

4AM at the "::Blue:: Note"
...............................on the lower east side.

Ladies painted in ::Electric Red::

The ::Indigo:: scrim makes stars jealous.

::Violet:: lapel pieces and $3 perfume.

Bring people together just to tear them apart?

Many 'Miles' we've all walked.

Compassion for each other in how we give

not what we take.

Not so much to ask.

Forgiveness is CLEAR.... Prismatic... Docile.

Peace or pieces?

I choose peace.
