Several people asked me to explain the meaning of yesterday's "poem". It's about my job playing music at Violette Restaraunt.
Gallic : relating to Gaul or France; French.
a cappuccino eve in the din of conversations : Shahid makes the best capuccinos, bar none, and the evening begins.
the short-wave end of the visible spectrum : VIOLET
vibrates without a lyric : It's instrumental music, no singing.
jazz is a teacher located where time is free
funk is a preacher sync-ing in a pocket : This is Mack and Dan.
during a pause salad brethren pass the bacon : Taking a dinner break.
originators of organically organ-ized auditory impressions
...on someone's birthday : This is Mack and Dan jamming on "Happy Birthday", and the waiter/waitress often scores some extra tips for this.
about waitress booty and large tips : "booty" as in award, or gain, not slang for buttocks... although the phoenetic sound of those words makes me laugh.
expeditious twelve bar or prehistoric swing takes it home : Usually playing a fast swing blues or "The Flintstones" signals the end of the evening's performance.
g'night y'all : is what Mack and Dan say to the customers as they leave.
