Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

did i go too far?

too far
or not far enough
billy joe shaver west texas troubador
some call him the cowboy hemingway
"my dearest friends are total strangers, the wish me freedom and self destruction"
at least that's the way it sounds when he is singing.

don't work to hard

we are...we are writing
the book on "JAM!"
right under everyone's noses......
taking the work thang to
a different level Jack, in
the key of tranquilo my friend,
& we are taking the jam to another page 25 to be exact
and we've only just begun the boom-shaka-lack......

tranquility base to wireman
the beaqle has landed
joy is on the way

going to go with this sock puppet for a while, every where I look it is all me, but this one makes me happy now. Beside that I could not login in with any of the others

page 25 was in limbo for a while
glitch in the software maybe
but how far can me take the sum of an infinite serries
page
10101010101010101110111101111011111111101111111101
and counting

joy life brings
as I am "Here"
like the Hopi
I sing
of spontaneity
with no agenda
no need to create anything but
the now from this, to scream back
at cha like a cow, it's not a place to
write pieces for tomorrow or borrow
lines for a play, nah it's right now today!

yesterday
tomorrow
was today
billy joe shaver say
he looked down on me from the stage
seemed a little put out by my appearance
long hair rabinical beard
looked me in the eye and said
I am working for the lord, who are you working for
I smiled and nodded
his life so filled with tragedy
but he is till working for his lord
me I don't know anymore
doobie brothers said it all for me
jesus is just ok with me
but that don't mean nothing
cause i have seen the meaness done in his name
but a woman I loved found comfort when she laid her head upon her saviors breast
if not for me she would have never had needed that salvation or an abortion either
so I played a rock and roll song
good night good night you know I love you but jesus loves u best
finger dancing is the way
meaning nothing
being mean
lean and mean
and it ain't easy being green
billelletric stop me if I am making too much sense
umm poppa mau mau
koo kook a chu
word kook typing data into cosmic wind

thunder rolls maybe a little rain
god I hope so

no mandolin wind couldn't change a thing, NOOOOOOOOO!

oh no it can
music is the key

wireman's got the hammer down
blow your doors off if you let him

hammer hammer

I be a jammin fool tonight..................

we be rodeo clowns tonight

jokesters and jesters and sacred clowns

the fool on the hill has eyes in his head

fool with the cool

the fool holds the jewel
which is the tool that'll
get us through to the
otherside...the one they call wild...........

rolling fast rolling hard rolling home
running wild

T&M
got your back door there

shoot the moon

one eyed jacks are wild
it is a damn good joke
when playing Hearts
The queen a spades can kill you
or you can try and play your hand
never complaigning about your chances
ya know it is the only game in town

just a quick note
wanna scan all you blokes
and blokettes
when i sink back into this chair
several lightyears from now.
off to the jewel mines.

3 days man
freedom rings...............

Clay is thinking of the french quater, wondering if they will be putting up a big French quater mall in its place.

I know, Cec
My worst fear is that they will drain the place and put in a mall

The thought of McBourbon Street chills my blood

I don't want to rain on your parade but that is how I feel about the inner harbor, I don't care how many hip bars, booteeks, and fancy restaurants are there

Me and ferlinghetti remember pictures of the gone world, the mystery of a great port city. I remember it when ships were there , I remember laying in bed at night listening to the fog horns. The crash of box cars being joinded to gether, the skip jacks tied up

I have to look up the word maudlin. Is that what I am missing.

I hear your joy, I don't feel it as much. Except for the sail boat rentals. That made me verry happy. Other than that it makes me feel old and in the way. (the title of an excellent blue grass album)
