guitars cadilacs and hill billy music
the only things that keep me keeping on
Lew Welch a man of constant sorrow blue moon of kentucky keep on shinning
the aroma of coffee the only thing to get the stench putrid chicken blood out of my nose
a chicken haulin chicken choking old fucking fool someone always trying to tell them something they all ready know
I just want to rock and roll all night long
to the sound of Mohammed's radio

"if you ain't a trucker, you ain't shit" doctor dooms truck stop
sometimes you just got to hammer hammer on it
let roar
pour it on
living can be such a hard way to go
I don't want to own anything
except for a few childhood souvenirs
I hear a truck start a big old cat engine
and that metalalic throb's like a gong or bell
it cuts right through to that sacred core
that vibrates to a Tibetan chant
Lew was depressed cause he got a sandwhich consisting of two slices of bread with a leaf a lettuce stuck in between.
he wrote a poem about it which got dam me I did not make a note to reference it here
but anyway I wanted to say, "Have a cookie Lew" Cheer up it's still something to eat, maybe put a little mayo on it.
I only hope he was not driven to it by any concern about money.
He might have been to Kentucky I don't know
Sometimes a person is too beautiful for this world I suppose
Vincent too I suppose
I just want to jam with the big dogs

Edie Parker got tired of eating those mayonnaise sandwhich's
Yet they jammed
Sticky like glue
The kind that glides
Takes a long time to bond
You'd need a magic wand
To make it stick
Jack was like Lickiddy split
Out the door
Wonder did he ever go to Baltimore?
In the bios I find no mention of a visit
Back to open door JAM!
It's goin on now
This imochine wound tight
Mary Jane on iTunes
Thinking back
Bout Becky Jane
Bout Lucy B
Bout carole jean
And I don't work for nobody but u....Baby!

I don't know
but I hope he did
make it to baltimore
his kind of town I think
I could see him walking into the old seafarer's hall
in fells point
pictures of a gone world now
jack made music with his words
got dam me I am tune deaf
I struggle to keep up with u and mingo
but I try cause:
"What we can't reach flying[running], we must reach limping. The book says, there is no sin in limping."

make it what I will
or none will
the will to power
power to will
up and down and all around
like a wheel rolling free out of it's own center
never too late to learn to dance
today is shot but
I still got tomorrow
keeping the faith
jamming my troubles away

between the key strokes
a momentary satori
life is a sticky jam
Night in Hollins Market, Baltimore
Live with the bohemian queen
Way past John Waters
Hangin with Sue Lowe
She was the party
Back when way back when
I was still drinking Bacardi
Washed up on the rocks
Land of nevermore

poetry coming up out of the ground
poetry coming down from the sky
poetry in the sea
poetry with eyes ears nose touch tongue
in fingers
in feet
in the air
in the graves
in our lungs
poetry the root
gives birth to us
takes us back when
we are done
when the last word is
gone from our tongues

my tongue stuck to
the roof of my mouth
but the words still comin'
coming from distance
going to distance
and taking me along
jam gets me to babbling
when I can't string a sentence
and I'm listening to things
that I can not see
passing close to me
in the night
can't always count on the power
but can always count on the jam

Looseness
Slippery word jam
Yet sticky
Sticks to the ribs
Nurtures the jibes
Jive jam
High five jam
Death defying jam
Jam goes on and on and on.....
