ON A HIGHER PLANE:

Last night, amongst the cigarette fumes & sweat, laughing
backstage, clutching water, focused head, clean & serene.
The light of a glass fronted fridge stacked with juices &
water sugar. People come & go, smiling, pose for photographs,
grateful. Cameras raised in the hands of thousands, flickering
digital flames as the chords drop to that song again.
Never gets tired.
