Jazz

I don’t usually listen to jazz
So why do I like this album
No words
No beat
Nothing to stoke
No adrenaline
No loves
No breakups
No pronouns
Is it the famous names
Duke Ellington
John Coltrane
Just names to me
Couldn’t tell you what they look like
Or what they’d have said
about the traffic situation
going through the tunnel
on highway 26
Or what they liked about this album
But I like it
