"Let The Jazz Make Love"
  by Gifted Pen


Naima - John Coltrane


Yes, we make eye contact
not knowing quite what the other is thinking
but I'm a man,
easy to figure out
You're a woman
there's nothing easy about you
as complex as the universe's matrix,
its math
its design

So I look for any type of sign
giving me the go
letting me know
if I can approach
but I'd rather stay here
where we are cool
yes, in the cool
with nothing to fear

Our eyes took glances
smiles were born
and troubles go into the abyss
while I image one thing,
what it would be like to give you a kiss

this moment is so pure
why de-flower it
by empowering it
through a physical meeting

granting power to these feelings
in this moment
will do us like knowledge did Adam & Eve

no good, babe, no good

you toss your head
in a come hither fashion
but no good, babe, no good

I shake no,
knowing it's not coming off right
we already don't see eye to eye
on this jazzy night

Your loss, you mouth at me
and you're right
I must agree

but better to let it pass
than get involve
and fail to last

So let's cherish this moment
you over there
and me over here

Let the jazz make love for us
and let us just imagine
and then there is no heartbreak

no moody blues
no sad Sunday afternoons,
thinking about a love lost

So, please, baby,
let the jazz make the love for us
and let's just enjoy the moment

damn. this shit deep enough to drown in, cuz. real talk. most people (read: dudes) don't write this far below the surface, let alone put themselves out there like that with straight intelligence. had to check you out cause you hit Scriptixz's top five. which...is an achievement in it's own right. i see that you earned that place. i'm goin have to look out for you in the future, i think. ten all day. i only wish i could hear the track...man, i'm feelin this! real talk, just vibe and let your eye...

I agree w/ Organic. Funny how sometimes moments can be as enjoyable or impactful....than the follow thru. Very nice piece.

Very artful! Nice and smooth, period! I enjoyed the rhythms all the way around. Images of eyes meeting, one knowing futile will follow, looks away, and insists on sending signals of 'silence this'. So in their respective corners staying, to self keeping. When end of night leads to separate ways, away, and will they wonder? Could her frenzy of rock and roll, with his fast strides and blue note jazz moves have fashioned a symphony of colliding notes, inspiring the birth of new, like fusion? ;-...
