Ode to Christone
Christone Kingfish Ingram Massey Hall October 2026
27 years old if he were a wind instrument he would be
a sousaphone planted himself beside an old bro at a recent
show we stood inches from him whiffing the scent of the blues
+Paco Rabanne
Christone stepped on my brother’s big toe +he may never wash
it again though i am quite certain it was already a stinkfoot digit
there is a singular seedy-scent that wafts off of this brother he too
smells like the blues but mixed with: wet dog+kasha flunken+goat
this a known aphrodisiac to his kind of chick mid-60’s borschty+
slightly mustachioed this night was his birthday i whispered it to
the BIG BLUES BOY who lifted Horace onto his back they were
last seen lighting out for the territories ahead
Hore always wanted a bluesey son
Christo a mordant elderly father
