Blue Guitar on a Red Chair

entry picture

A blue guitar sits on a red chair.

She likes to play the blues on that guitar

& she insists that the chair is where the guitar should sit

but isn't a chair meant for people-sitting

I query,

well apparently not

because that blue guitar

has been sitting

on that red chair

for eons it seems

(months? years? I can't keep track of time anymore so I don't hardly try),

okay, blue guitar on red chair--

play your soulful tunes

& come & sit awhile

with me, my friend.
