About This Poem: Music, when it’s really good, and the moment is exactly right, has a way of stirring your soul in ways nothing else can. Whenever I’m feeling stuck in life or just down in general, Miles Davis’ music always sets me free. It's difficult to see the solution to a problem or obstacle with the same mindset that created it. Sometimes to find the answer you must simply switch your mind to another channel and everything becomes crystal clear. I hope you've enjoyed this.
