Melody of Joy
Bliss with brass accounting.
Joy in New Orleans is not a vacation. It is statehood — French Quarter pulse, Mississippi shoulder, horn section teaching the chest that sorrow and elation share rent.
Timeless melody is brochure copy. Accurate is the tune you hum while doing dishes, while grieving, while waiting for the streetcar.
No limit is false. Joy here knows closing time. It returns anyway.
The horn finds the key again.
