Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt play the Pantages

and so they sit
inside circle of dusty light
on this vaudeville stage
and wrestle with their 
creation stories  

vocal cords taut with
southern             strength
fingers fretting familiar guitars

each song a symphony of
blues bathed beauty

and so the red dusty vaudevillian light
turns into a swirling sweep of
setting southern sun
lifting us into the vortex of feeling
created by full friendship and respect
