Red Brick Reverb
Tell the sound guy,
“red brick reverb” -
no amplification needed.
Bass and kick bouncing
off corners and empty Schlafly’s
makes your chest rattle.
Leave the acoustic in your case.
Plenty of rhythm playing in the
high decibel conversation,
cicadas pulsating.
But turn it up -
that sweet Skyranrd that the Show Me State
pretends to understand.
Southern gentleman, take my hand
and swirl me around that makeshift dance floor,
and I’ll two-step you all the way back to Nashville -
where red brick reverb was born.
