A Motherficker Too by Patricia Smith
"...the whole band would just like have an orgasm every time Bird or Diz would play ...Sarah Vaughan was there also, and she's a motherfucker too." - Miles Davis
Up to you to figure out which one of 'em we talking about. Could be any of three, lining the babes up like dominos, swearing they just had the love to give, and up on stage, passing it on, flashing it shameless, struttin' it silly, those blowings that coulda caught fire if fire was what they wanted. And two of them smack slapped, and one of them born with beep beep in his blood and even with bebopping this heavy, it was a mess before you know it. Up to you to figure out which one we talking about. Arkansas road walking with church funky pumping through branches and he stop and he wail an all-night answer the Lord don't want nothing to do with, blue lines so funky they smelled bad. irrational flyer, up there so much Gabriel post a note saying 'No sidemen needed, damnit, keep that horn in its cage.' But he blow so tender. Up baby, Up, mute like screaming through a closed mouth. Up baby, Up, and two of them smack slapped and one lock himself away, riding the back of the bitch. Strapped down on daddy's farm, banging the walls and shit! how many ways is blue? Came out kicking, came out crazy, and wanted nothing else but a hungry woman after jamming. The three of them, Dark appetites in triple, and one stoked it out, one exploded, one just got old. The thing to remember is the collision of Miles, Bird, and Dizzy, all of them lost behind Miss V, three motherfuckers in awe of another.
