(a hard poem to find on the net)</center>



I like that one a lot
even got a sock puppet named after it


I am no talmud scholar
but you know everybody and their brother knows about the bit that goes something like this

"thank you lord of the universe for not creating me a woman"
something like that.

from her heavely annotated and underlined copy of The Great Gatsby.

If I come back as a woman, I want to be an old old hag, so no man would take an interest in me. But syslvia probably knew more about it then a wombless male could possibly know.

Us wombless males are a vanishing breed, I hear they want to put us on reservations. Tourist attractions we will be. Sign on the highway:
"See Real Live Wombless Males!" $2.50 (Includes Hot Dog & a Coke!)

I guess if I had a womb
I would be a wombman

I used to go around
feeling very profound
with my dick touching the ground
pontificating aboout women.

But then I remembered a quote from Frederick Nitzke, the great german philosopher and middle lindebacker for the green bay packers.
"Experience:
Who the hell has time enough for that?"

Poor poor pitiful men

Joan of Arc kisses Spartacus, very nice I forgot to say so

Is that a kosher hot dog?

Sounds like a deal
make me one with everything.

If I could confine myself to my own log things would be a lot simpler but I just can't seem to help myself...got to get out and about and see what folks are up at.

oops...I blew the banjo solo on this one,st...I dropped or picked up a click somewhere long the line here...I see I managed the ol' double post trick...anyways...gives me a chance to comment to something you said somewhere here the other day about Joni Mitchell, thats my favorite song by her too...we reach, cousin! I've had other favorites by her down thru the years too but "You Turn Me On, I'm a Radio" has never relinquished its place at the top of the heap. She's about sixty five now and I would still gladly give my two left lug nuts to sit around and watch her talk, or paint, or walk down her driveway & get in her car.

Smiles

Silent woman had a slow smile
As she sat on the side of the bed
and studied my face intently with an open and calm stare.
and then she smiled on me and my heart stopped beating

Reminded me of how the lead elephant would reach out with her trunk
and pull me to her and study my face with her brown eyes. No smile though, but she did take my hand in the end of her trunk and put it in her mouth.

I am a very sick puppy cause it kind of caused a twinge in the loins.



Joni always made me feel like a freeman in Paris.

There is one woman here on studio eight who made me feel like hemingway in love.

How long has it taken me to learn that beatles song
"you go to hide your love away"

God bless it ,Jack, here we are in resurrection country again, you're outing my freak here but I'm rolling on the banjo boat gives me something new to do with the dead graving over in their rolls as we spirit from a standstill to new direction. Maybe New Mexico. Go digital!
Old Mexico too, I love all that Day of the Dead jazz! All them candles & skeleton people and santos pictures. I don't think Coyote is such a cute Bugs Bunny guy south of the border. Its the time of year for it, walking heebee-jeebees, get right up under your fingernails they will.

In Remembrance of Aida... an old friend who lost her life in an auto accident (she wasn't wearing a seat belt) :

In Remembrance of Soo's Dad, Robert Ellison (Pearl Harbor Survivor). He always said he had an angel looking out for him :

not even a picture of her to make a shrine to Cecil. Silent woman's eldest daughter, killed on a mountain pass in Calfifornia.

I have tried to post about her several times once on a GO with kim.

She would crack me up when she would roll her eyes and say to her little sister "tell me about it" when the kid had just become aware of

I can remember her at fourteen but I saw a picture of her taken in her twenties maybe,

Day of the dead
yes a tradition in my family
in the fall of the year
to visit the ancestors
but anyday anyseason could be the same
but something about the fall
like the salmon changing colors after they spawn.

I have printed out your homage to SooZen's father. Every once in a while I search through my mounds of paper looking for some receipt or address and I stumble upon it, stop and read it again.

She is a fortunate daughter. And you were fortunate to know him too. December seventh I was one year old, it is my birthday. 9/1101 is our new 12/07/41 I suppose.

Deleted fro Go a bit a go
the limit of sound, a homage to poets

cast your pearly words before me
sail your metaphors to my deaf ears
Untangle the Sargassum
in the dark sea within me

drowning in ennui
poetry a life line
