i got the title off of an online "oxymoron machine."
The jazz--
      cool, sensual...
              rythmic--
                  tic...tic...tic...
              rythmic--
                  tic...tic...
              beatnik--
                  tic...

Flowed ever--
                  ever--
                          slowly...
                rather slowly...

                      It flowed on--
                      tic...tic...tic...
                  as the red dyes--
                        the orange dyes--
                        the purple dyes--
                              tie dyes!
                  caressed the smokey,
                                    smokey room.

Ah, yes!--
      cool,
      enchanting,
      seductive haze...
            mmm...

The jazz--
          tic...tic...tic...
      tasted quite--
          tic...tic...
      calming,
      soothing--
          tic...
      humbling.

As the quiet,
          sultry smoke--
                              rose.
As the ticking--
          tic...tic...
            Jazz!
                      tic...
                            flowed on.
