The Black child waits.\n\nHis body spilling in silent blue circles. His voice raised in Church where The Word is sustained..\n\n'cause God needs the time to hear the ordained, previously unrecorded artist.\n\nPrayer, despair or great good humor: Blue is the melodic color of feeling. A long smooth wave with time to spare. Rich or poor, it's all the same movement. As the child glows\n\nThe Blues grow vibrant. The song varies. On the railroad to L.A. In the mills. At sea. The job gets harder the bigger he gets and the dues come late for the Spoon. Black architect of the vocal Blues.",
