That Horn Flew


   
              The melody got lost, first off. Everything got lost, then, while that horn flew. It was only jazz ; it was the heart of jazz, and the insides, pulled out with the roots and held up for everybody to see ; it was the blues that told the story of all the lonely cats and all the ugly whores who ever lived ........
