--------------------------

The Blues won’t ask
permission
as it infiltrates
your soul

Each riff a lesion
around your heart
each wail
heartbreak untold

The Blues wont grant
forgiveness
for those roads on which
you strayed

But the thing it wills
inside you
is the mojo
— that you play

(Kingston Mines: January, 2026)
