jazz flows from the horn
like a terminal disease
the case is opn
loose change littered

when did jazz become cheap?
skill and craft for pennies
gratituties only, please
i ain't no beggar

flittering through the tunnel
eyes closed against them
don't judge me
i ain't no junkie

notes keyed by emphasis
strong notes make you turn
you look at the case
you jiggle your pockets
cash flows
pennies flitter
gratuity emphasized

jazz is never cheap
heart soul home
paid for you today
never cheap
always free
i ain't no beggar
