Chester Giles writes


a talking blues 
for 
Jeremy Toombs



in which I try to communicate that human thing
  and say something simple and great about brotherhood
  and the saints
  and the ancients
while i stand at work in the basement
 slicing bread
country music in the speaker
  inches from my face
