"Jazz Fan Looks Back" by Jayne Cortez

I love how she looks back into the Jazz era. She really expresses how she loves the music and how it made her feel and react. She uses words to express the emotions that build up inside of her from the jazz era in a way that we can feel as if we are there right with her. Describing the styles and dances and even mentioning the most powerful and influential Jazz artist of that era was a great way of the poet giving me a taste of the art of jazz.
