Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

free space
used space
cluster size -

when it comes to poetry
i'm proud of myself
for being so calm

elder care & politics usa
are non-profit enterprises -
electronic grandmothers are
the next big thing
are you positioned?
got batteries?

the boomers are rushing
the finish line
beyond which there will be
no feedback

on my headstone
i want the words -
"Where's a good arts forum when
you really need one?"

on my way out the door
I will need a hole in the ground
with a stone to mark the spot
or cremation services
all of this takes money

i have no money -

you can't die without
being able
to pay for it -
or perhaps i misunderstand materialism in general altogether?

great work, the mingo!

i especially enjoyed the last few lines -- really brought it home. props!

love it mingo
i wanna die with all them
credit cards maxed out
times is bad
moneys tighter and tighter
a poor man has zero chance
they keep askin me at the
bank if i wanna open a savings
hell im just tryin to keep a livings
everybody wants a piece of us
especially insurance industry blood suckers
i used to be married to a life underwriter
the christmas party was like a lawyer/lobbyist
convention, and they have won
life....health....home owners....renters...car....and on and on
its a wonder anybody has a car
i aint. buying into it anymore
the trains ok, bus too
a bikes best
this worlds goin crazy
i really feel for the younger generation
they have a hard road to hoe for sure

Thx Wireman & whoaisme - things never were good & they ain't getting any better - pound of flesh ain't a metaphor anymore - it's a realistic assessment - and has been for years -
thx for reading -

too poor to die
might as well live
yogi lives on air

we kill ourselves
working for a living
to pay for our death

All we really need is a penny and a place to toss it.

pitcin pennies behind
hillcrest hgts shopping center
was my favorite game
as a kid....

Why waste monies when we can get some wishes, been doing so since for almost always too. I tossed my pennies on a brick street's shopping center's water fountains. I'll never forget the feeling of wishing, just gots to keep it going, addicted to it.

I DO NOT WANT TO DIE NEVER HAVING LIVED- i am sure that there is still more life= then death in the heart-
amazing journey- and the 'gotta have it' thing- materialism- poverty- is it ok to just go hike up in the moutnatins when it is really fucking cold when you are old- and let it go while sleeping to be warm
then where will we go?
the local tavern?
the God guys and guru guys will be hanging around
trying to tell me i didnt do it right
i betcha
that was the beef
see
couldnt BUY IT lock stock and barrel-

then there is great material- jenji kohan weeds-orange is the new black=
i want to sit with the crew and write shuit up- like saturday night live imcaptivated by humor
why do the death bones rattle so? there was a drunken barn owl standing by the road the other night

I had a funny owl dream this morning at 8:45ish.
There was a white cat bat and it dived to the wall to capture a white owl, one of them or both reminded me of dragons in the dream. Later on the white cat bat turned out to be an ordinary black cat with a vibrant blue leash, until it stuck out it's vibrant almost purple blue tongue and meowed at me.

That's what I'm taking advantage of in life, feeling good.
Walking in the cool mountain is feeling good too.
Saying "Hi" to Penelope the black and white cow (she really does say moo, heard it twice), is feeling good.
