True voice of the blues
Her soulful songs topped the charts
Rest in peace Etta

The Poor Soul so tried
yet met with certain failure
Gleason's humble id
~
Katrina robbed souls
sweeping away livelihoods
Obliteration

Heart, body, and soul,
Barry, Smokey, and Marvin
Seventies' Soul Train

Sings my soul to thee
infinite omnipresence

Sings my soul to thee

Music thus arranged
Our yearning essence
moving impulses aspire
To higher levels
Sublime from within
innate womb of suspension,
Comes not ready made
Trials play us forward
beyond the last horizon
Divinely spun web
