there comes a time when,
it's not like ur throwing
in the towel or anything
like that per se,
but a realization hits
that there's only so much
time left in this existence
at 62 how many good ones
are on the horizon
you can fight it or you
can proceed and accept
maybe this jam thing ran
it's course or perhaps
it's in a lull, not my call
the stats from earlier jams
show it's down by at least half
in the way of responses
jam is like life, and in it's living
incarnation it will have it's
ups and downs, someday it will
cease to be, like sinatra sang,
"That's life!"

these are my observations, please read them carefully, they are not meant to be negative in any way, shape, or form..... 8)

OK. It is finished.
I got crucified last night.
Well, they tried, but they
couldn't kill me yet.
I'm still alive, sort of,
fighting for survival.
I await the arrival
of an apology which
will never happen.
Perhaps, if the crucifixion
is a success, I'll rest
for a while and then
be reborn from the tomb
through someone else's womb.
I could use starting all over.
Then again, who would want
to experience the suffering
once more? I hate to bore you
with this, but life has, for the most part
been a huge disappointment.
Please email me some holy ointment
so I can baptize myself in it.

my kitchen fairly shipshape
this morning but not now
bike parts all over the place
table, floor
you name it -
finish tomorrow -
this after-market bike accessory business
slick and sly & a moneymaker for some
shit -
fashion & fad dictate how bikes are sold
not necessity -
bikes used to come standard with fenders & kickstand
& sometimes lights built right into the frame
those days long gone
long long gone -
standard - something no one understands
or even demands much less expects anymore

Mr. Schwinn, where have you gone?

I'm adding the necessities myself these days
it's a dangerous thing to let
any man or woman understand
that the necessities are up to them to straighten out
dangerous indeed -

I woke up before
Christ exited the tomb.
After he got out, he stopped by
for breakfast. We had eggs.
Easter eggs. I asked him about the
symbolism of the egg and what it has
to do with him. He said, "It has nothing
to do with me. Got any orange juice?"
