Beauty #12

I've got a lot of thoughts surrounding the fleeting nature of jazz and how much it relates to my style of dating. 

I don't feel like writing any of them.

Suffice it to say, there are very few singers who can make heartbreak beautiful (Patsy Cline and Bon Iver are at the top of my list).

And Billie Holiday. Jesus. No one, but no one, sings about heartbreak like Billie Holiday. 

I love Billie Holiday because she can simultaneously indulge my need to feel like hell and (somehow) make me appreciate whatever relationship has just ended for what it was worth. 


And, what the hell, one more.
