sometimes the bass goes first
and often they diverge
making interesting detours, elaborating the bind between breaking time a moving innate voice is awake dead stop walking but staying, slap Styx against banks of muttering listeners
The bass plays back at him. They go at it. Jigging, on the spot, on top of the world near the tip at the end.
Really working at it. Joy on his face. The bass impressive. But both naked in some big ways, descending each step and scraping off for joie de vivre’s élan and getting off on each tune up a squeezed ascent, getting now, here, quickly; getting to knew, how contentedly
