Slow ride … take it easy? Hell no, I'm all shook up.
You know we were once dancing down the street with our suede blue eyes — bopping to green onions. Now we have bad breath. We sing: Here she comes again. We cry a world of tears.
You can't say what you don't know. You know later on won't work no more. It took a world of trouble; it took a world of verbs and conjunctions to get back here. But it's always like starting over. Poop aloof. Poop a Popsicle — root beer.
In this open mad dog saloon we are served alligator stew. We chew, we spit, we digest, and we drink the cool water flow. Barefoot girls dance in the moonlight. Hobos count the bullfrogs. Yet they still tell us things we don't know. Whiskey bottles and oak trees be damned. Picture what will be as one little problem confronts you — a monkey wearing lederhosen is on your back. Type fast. Collate collages, just one more fix might do the trick; Ooooh that smell … the smell of death around us.
Breaking news: Once there was this kid who got into an accident and couldn't come to school, but when he finally came back, his hair had turned from black into bright white; his pre-story told was still loading. An insane kangaroo screamed. A manic mannequin with a manicotti mustache slapped the kangaroo. More later …
Left to some too many days are really weekends. From the darkness we watch the tragically hip poets ruminate rhubarb pie à la mode topped with strawberry sushi. They don't know what's up or down. Neither do the silhouettes walking counter-spiral against the stormy night. They need help as a flicker of a thousand lights calls from another time — another place. It's so bright; we need celebrity internet rehab sunglasses.
Oh man, give me a word, give me a sign, show me where to look, tell me what will I find. Don't be a sarcastic mister know it all. Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ’cause with the birds I’ll share this lonely view — or maybe I'll just punt petunias 'cause in the end this isn't the end my friends.
The blue bus is calling us ...

At first I saw song titles but then it got more intense.
Don't look for a word, nor look for a sign..
Because you have it all there
Just make sure you do not lose it.
rated with hugs
About a couple of fools like us
No one’s gonna write a book
About our little love
You don’t get your picture on the local front page
For falling in love at a reckless age
Love you, Mustard Man
Well, this Sunday’s sermon won’t mention
All the work we put into this love
They ain’t gonna hang a billboard
Congratulating us ...
raging through an apple orchard
where all the apples
falling
(showing us the gravity of the situation we are in)
are golden.
I did not bring enough bags!
The juiciest one is:
You can't say what you don't know.
You know later on won't work no more.
It took a world of trouble;
it took a world of verbs and conjunctions to get back here.
But it's always like starting over
They are making too many new nouns for me.
Where can i find a
blue bus schedule?
does it have wi fi?
I started one of these, but reading yours makes me know I am not going to finish it.
I'm stealing that line...I laughed...now I need sleep...
