    The plateau hit an opus
    at Friday night concert;
    adagio borders crescendoed
    to allegretto growth,
    breaching the mighty flagstaff.

    They wielded six/eight time,
    poly-rhythms an obstinato costume
    lounging on tambourine flicks
    clanking animated pastoral air.

    From C to D
    the chorus climbed
    fugue acid matter,
    the addition of violas
    in vicious pizzicato
    twisted knarled fortissimo.

    It crashed into mushroom jazz coda,
    a mellow machine of loops, choir, and mellotron.
    Moody Blue’s memories sweeped
    taped quartets across stereo field.

    Then a full stop,
    and finally,
    they brought the funk
    and birthed the cowbell.

    Marshall cabinets cranked,
    overdriven atonal chords
    along pentatonic scale—
    Crimson style building….
    building…. building…
    and a hell yeah tarzan yell—
    oh-ah-oh-ah-oh!

    Know what I’m saying?
    Fuckin’ rock n roll…

    "In The Court Of The Crimson King"... I wonder if Stephen King listened to that in the 60's.
