My Practice

My Practice

Wake up before twilight
Review the spirit moves
in my mind on fast forward.

Do Savoy Sun Salutations.

Head down to the track,
do laps of jazz steps--
shorty george, boogie back--
then run a few miles using
rubber legs, slip slops, & shuffles.

An hour of push hands to practice following.

Return home to limber in the sauna
while listening to early basie.

Breakfast on chicken and waffles

Review all footage of Whitey's
while taking care of business.

Then dinner of fried chicken with Norma
before going heading to the dance.

Dance with every woman in the room
(cute ones twice, good ones trice).

Then off to Minton's to jam with the boys.
