Del Barber

tufts of black hair at odd angles catch the eye
rearranged by sweaty hand
between songs that ask the questions
of existence
in jagged verse
and merry melody 

flaying fingers give guitar voice
as songs story our time with casual urgency
telling tales tall and small
of grin and grimace  

he likes to angle to the mic
with squinting eyes
and run long fingered phrases through our
tufted souls
