Long Cool Woman had it all 'till She Lost it

This morning I stepped into a cold rain hoping to wash away some blues I found. My temperature was rising and I wiggled like a worm in the hungry robin's mouth.  Inside my snakeskin boots I was not me.

History shows again and again

How nature points out the folly of men

Look it here, people are talking true lies. Some are already gone — feeling strong while singing their victory song. It makes me stop and wonder why it so often times happen we have the key to the chains that shackle. Already gone… pull the high-tension wires down.

Oh no there goes Tokyo   

Take it on faith, It don't feel like heaven right now. Sometimes it feels like something from a dream. Yeah I've never known nothing quite like this. Try and pretend. Play naked charades in braille. Eat Play-Doh hamburgers heavy with chipotle sauce. Dance the Zapata with Jesus. Move before they raise the fuckin' rent.

Go … go Godzilla

Let me tell you all about it. I did take her home to my place with no game, no shame. Lord above it was a trick of love. We're so happy together. We discuss althazagoraphobic glossofelia. We memorize Chinese menus. We play mind games with limp linguini. Ain't talking ' bout love.

Hey Hey Hey

My song is a waltz. And I'm not gonna take it back. And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that. I am going to say the Pony Express has delivered my message in a bottle with due diligentosity. Dillydallyshillyshally. Dillyflopwhopper. Is this the best thing that could be happening?

Am I'm trying so hard

You know she don't care about my car. She don't care about my money. She likes me for me — all insecure conditions are intact in Fargo. And I'm so glad I found her once again. But staring at the ceiling, I wonder when will become again.

why do we never get an answer when we're knockin' at the door?
I'm reading, I'm absorbing, I'm thinking, I'm thinking. You always make me think.
this place is so so slow
it's bad bad
for the writer's ego
ago ago
so slow so slow
LOL
althazagoraphobic glossofelia?

My new word for the day.
rated with hugs
Whew you have said a mouth full, now to go back and read it again!
distant memories are analogous
current memories are cartoons
a magic carpet ride
to the other side might help
or hinder
the slow slow slow
tortoise riding low here
so slow so slow so slow
sign off?
it might go
You never fail to amaze me. Love the photo...the blues are on the way out I see.
no matter the weather
storms are past
sailin' on a slow boat
no oars no row
lines lines lines
slowness super-slowness
pass the croutons
pop the corn
Chuck, when I got to the picture at the end - then it all made sense!
This had me reading, not breathing, mouth open and drooling. Dang you can write to make a person's brain work.

We have GOT to find a new place.
there is a place for us
somewhere a place for us
outside the inside
inside the turnbuckle
beyond
bee hive bouffants
and minimal nonlinear constrained minimization
of effort
of dirty deeds done
keep knocking on that door; I liked this
Slow but sometimes, well worth the price of something...:D

Rated!!
I'm just hearing, as I read this, banjo music. Is there music? Are you singing?
foot stomping zydeco boogie pre-rapture.
Yes, I hear you Chuck. And then along comes Monday to start all over again! *Rated!*
The answer is there. Perhaps you are knocking on the wrong door?

R
Yeah, Chuck: what door you knockin' at?
(Knocking it cuz it don't open for you....)
i guess she took the badge offa you/gettin too dark to see,
you buried your guns in the ground...
(ALL of them, including your personal defense mechanisms of
mass destruction---PMMD....)

Here's a paradox: you complain about slowness
yet your song is a waltz...so,
your dance is constricted a bit.
3 beats.
Haven't you ever heard of rock n roll?
Buddy Holly?
Richie Valens?
La bamba!
"yo soy capitan", etc....

other than these minor (mirrorlike) quibbles,
i say: a fine post, cognizant of nature's follies,
like us.
