for contest--starting lines with "d"--for my jazz-loving darling
Down beat

Deep down in the
down beat
dwells Miles
dewy Davis,
daddy-o of the hard-bop
doing trumpet
dipsy-doodles
diggin'
deep into blue notes.
Don't do white-girl blues.
Dig it.
Dig the
dance of lovers
drowning in each other.
Discover
dizzy dreams
dragging jazz along.
Devolve to that
ditty-bop
doo-wop
dripping
diamond joy-drops
drumming like a woman.
Darling,

decrescendo,

diminuendo,

delicato,
do it.
Do it.
Do it.
