Freda Kamphuis: Cuby in concert

grollo muskee

Harry Muskee, 10 juni 1941 – 26 september 2011

 

Cuby in concert

 

De zaal lacht, bruist, suist, op en top hot

verwachtingsvol wachtend op de blues

die weldra ontspruit aan loden strot

van mister blues Cuby Blizzard himself

aren’t we ready to dwell in his hell.

 

Stem is brul, loeit, beukt zich een weg

naar binnen, niemand ontkomt ook al

zou men nog ergens willen ontkomen

achter de storm ontwaart men nog net

rotsvaste Harry, black t-shirt, black pet.

 

Diep in het duister zoekt Erwin’s gitaar

gierend, tierend, klierend naar de climax

maar steeds als men denkt dat die komt

dan komt het nog niet, teveel verdriet, zijn

klagende, jagende snaren vinden het niet.
