Ode to Ferde Grofé

Ode to Ferde Grofé

When a name
Echos more than sound
Fame
Must rise from the ground

Not loose sand
Man you gotta dig
Suites planned
Transcendent gig

It's not lawful
To obey the past
Becoming awful
Awfully fast

Yet picking pizzazz
Jumped
Mixing all that jazz
Futures coolly lumped
