Re: it was the best of times

Google is God, wired up
to a brazillion humming servers
hooked in series out to Centauri.
The New Cybernauts drift past,
pirouetting, tumbling toward
the Big Cosmic Screen at the
end of the Yellow Brick Cable,
back to the old Garden patio
full of snakes, and . . .

Sorry, wandered off there . . .

A Military Complex

We shall not rest.

We shall not yield

against forces of tyranny,

this wave of hegemony,

this tide of freedom.

Let no evildoers deny

Its sacred contracts.

Re: language itself

True. Much of "sense" has been hammered into us, claiming to be "common." Even though it's not.

Yeah, now we hittin' those notes,
careenin' crazily from dark brick walls,
wailin' and waftin' out like smoke rings.

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

we rumblin', tumblin'
even movin' when sittin'
we rollin' thru star sheens,
bowlin' the bright night pins,
'til the pure silver dawns
on winter-white lawns.

I'm just one rhymin' fool.
I make no sense.
No sense at all !

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

All I know is that
Sly and the Family Stone makes one hell of a lot of sense to me this morning.

"Sing a Simple Song!"

That is the FUNK right there, with apologies to James Brown..

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

I don't really have a gun.

It just rhymed with fun and run.

Though I probably should have a gun these days, they keep telling me.

Happy Old Year!

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

I've had my fun
and gun and on the run,
and I'll let the scholars debate
how it all should play out.

The main thing is,

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

I'm gonna jam like James and the funky horns
from way back when the jams began to jam
and the poets grabbed the wheel of this
grooved-out, jamtastic third stone from
the big blaze of cosmic riddim...

Re: Jam Here! 2016 Welcome Word Jam!

I traveled from faraway lands, over searing dunes and flats of mirage, pulled by deep blue waters that vanish, thirsting for the oasis of jam; the crazy garden of poets; their verse entwined. The trip was long; my passage to the new world. I became dune , traveler from the sun; my arrival foretold i...

Re: Talking to the Burning Bush (revision 1)

We aren't one chosen people or Church But a whole humanity whipping around a star That tracks through the gravity of a galaxy That swirls itself on a filament in such macro-space That we hardly have the slightest grasp. You're right. Battling Gods won't do us any good. It seems faith, like everythi...
