The Healer
for Ira Podnus & Carol Schwaner
John Lee Hooker says: "My songs
are like poetry. Some
are pretty heavy--so heavy
I can hardly carry them.
Sometimes on stage,
when I'm singing them,
it gets so sad
& deep & beautiful,
I have to wear dark glasses
to keep the people
from seeing me crying.
I'm not kidding. The tears
just start running. With the words
that I'm saying & the way
that I sing, sometimes I give
my own self the blues."
