from POCKET TRUMPET

(for Don Cherry)

I dreamt I lost my magnificent pocket trumpet

I left it in the airport X-ray machine

I left it in a taxi cab

I left it on a street corner in Paris

I dreamt I said goodbye to my pocket trumpet

I kissed it I hugged it  I dropped it

I picked it up then dreamt

it was locked in jaws of a bloodhound
