Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

lost in the essays
reading her mind
the white album
no not the Beatles
a collection of unique views
of the west coast
in the seventies
language elevated
joan didion
just before bedtime
may enhance your dreams

caught up in the subdudes my mood has no choice but to follow they have a power most nights to kick depression to the curb even ennui you must be like felix the cat to have a long mostly happy life a bag of tricks ready and waiting......so I stick my hand inside the pouch pull out something to alter...

I was standing on the shore
so many times in Key West
a teenager watching ships
coming into port from Colombia
Jamaica, Mexico
the holds full of herbs
a great place to come of age
a Sacred Time
A time for music
and friendship
ceremony,,,, as the sun set
in Mallory Square

looking forward
to the day
when I never hear
the word trump
again ever
gee
I might have to die
for that to happen

another scan another toke and we can thank Alice B. Toklas for not objecting to someone using a part of her last name "Toke"..las.....and oh lets not forget the brownies and Gertrude Stein Picasso Hemingway Matise.....Paris just trying to distact myself...................................... it worke...

happy to nest these days
traveled the US,a bit of Europe
after hospitals the nest feels amazing

im rooted you might say
rooty toot tootie
days of the wind in my hair

wont move my patootie

wish I had a story
being with the same woman
for forty, fifty years

wonderful pics !

my backyard is jungle
no stamina to trim it up
but I kinda like it
seeing what pops up
and where

the hearbreak is immeasurable

I have friends from childhood
also from my days in Key West ( 69-77 )
still in touch
along with Baltimore friends of 40 years
lucky guy

treatment aborted
new plan is more scans
brain and pelvis
the dude abides

I believe I qualify
as a professional
patient
with patience

woke up this morning
troubled by a haunting question
when was the last time
I put air in my tires
