Miles Davis

Sometimes, perhaps mostly

I've found that a lack of knowledge 

improves my experience of things that interest me.

The allure that I can give 

to epochs that I was not present for,
or was, just barely,
for a variety of possible reasons

often imbue the things that I enjoy most from these times

with a special flavor.

This flavor seems to make them all the more delicious.

I started writing this thing

-whatever it is-

with the idea of noting why I like so much
two specific recordings of the jazz artist Miles Davis,

someone that I don't know too much about 

and a genre I know even less of.

After many starts,
and edits,
I found that too many ideas

and thoughts

and especially words

tangled me up

when writing in essay form.

So I thought to myself;

"self"

why not write in a form you know less of than even jazz

or Miles Davis?

And found this form perfect.
