What can't/cancan `I say?
Each time I walk in back door.
I 'aim; to take the respected way.
Honest.

~tears~ Chuck and Art,
WHAM!
Need to start their own....

:D

That's as far as I can go!! RATED!
The syncopated rhythm of Chuck Stetson.
Quite a concert. It felt like flying.
remember when you were young? you shone like the sun.
A fitting homage to Mr. James.
the mightiest collaboration conceivable
is in the works, i think...

"I 'aim; to take the respected way.
Honest. "
each time he walks in the back door.

In the garden, as he approaches the back door,
the murmur of the front door visitors
mangling his mind, he identifies with
the lonely avian leftover
from the winter of 2011:
big wheel (wheel of fire)
keeps on turnin'
groovin' to the
'little bird
"who sings and sings"


These fellows are both : bird and wheel.

Good try, Chuck, but this is all Art James to me. :o)
Sir Arthur and Chuck
in the bird bath
singing
nobel laureates
pretending to be mortal
singing away
looking around
feathers shaking the water off
singing a song
we all understand
in a language that is ours. xox
there are two of you now - this was amazing...
Only you could make me read a poem as much as Art.
a delightful ode from one whimsical poet to another.

**** very lovely chuck ****
whimsical, hm? More like psychotically pursuing
the end fringes of our
collective existence,
you two.
rheumatism rhumba`
outside
house of the
rising sun!

the house is beckoning.
it's on the market,
but prices are plunging.

if they plunge to $50 american,
me & my myriads might buy it.
Tahitian Telecaster? Nice Art salad!
Oh, this makes me SMILE!!!

Chuck and Art ... what could be better!!!
Hubba hubba
Wazoo.
