Was it Worth It ?

Was it worth it?

Hell, yeah.

I got to drive during JJJ’s hottest 100 of 2022..

Got to hear the First Nation’s cover of Cold Play’s ‘Yellow’,

a wild, gritty banger

by King Stingray

the didgeridoo barking like camp-dogs.

Eat your heart out, Chris Martin.

I got to see a quilt of sparrows whirring across a blue denim sky

in a 45 degree tilt.

Wild and acrobatic.

Most of all I got to break free,

like those sparrows,

like King Stingray

tearing it up for freedom, togetherness

like the house parties all across the nation on this special day

with forty more tracks still to go,

and I’m in my car,

one part of me driving, the other dancing to the beats.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
