Holy spirit


To Cecillia

I'm not scarred by a righteous fight
Don’t have a piercing, or tattoos
I’m not certain that I am right
About my haircut or my shoes
There’s nothing peculiar in my speech
Don’t have artistic hands or feet
Sublimity seems out of reach
I live in a suburban  street
I’ve never wowed a trendy club
My lights are off at half-past nine
I haven’t but I know I could
Perhaps I could, with one more wine
I would capture with my muse
The holy spirit of the blues
