old Rolling Stones
in a box from 1993
a history lesson inside a magazine
who is hot, what is for sale
what are the trends
so much that I have forgotten
and I wonder where the old observations go
are they still circling around in my head
just waiting for me to enlist them
so much was restored looking at these images
so it wasn't completely gone
but what lobe was it living in
is there a section in my head that's like an attic
with dusty objects waiting for renewal
or maybe it's like The Cloud
an offsite storage area, or a limbo basement
stacked with boxes to the underside of the ceiling
and why am i asking myself this ?
just because, I opened a box full of old Rolling Stones
...........come to think of it, I Am an old Rolling Stone

for what it's worth
imagine
beginnings
are you experienced volunteers
stand up and do the twist
if you desire truth and wildflowers
but get the freewheelin' freak out
and night moves make you shiver
sunshine superman takes off with
blues from laurel canyon
in the long run
american women
at the aftermath of cheap thrills
hold on and turn, turn, turn
we all alone together and as bold as love
and now
the times they are a changin'
so far
at gasoline alley
at folsom prison
and heading down the yellow brick road
it's daylight again
(just browsing my vinyl collection, can you guess all 30?)
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.

winddance'....thought you might appreciate this poem I posted here at studio eight July 13, 2008

Riding Bareback

the sun offered a needed interlude
for an angry young man
stepping out into the new summer air
trying to squeeze a drop of meaning
from the establishment of war,
from the cosmic twists of the rising moon....
and a beautiful child was born
in the psychedelic seeds germinating

in the stalls of unstable stables, and we
knew we would no longer need saddles

our knights would wear white satin,
the red doors would be painted black.
we'd sail in yellow submarines along
the green river with brown-eyed girls
we'd dance with the devil with the blue dress on.
We were the new riders, galloping
through the purple sage, searching
for a heart of gold, in the sunshine of our love
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

The palette explodes
nature's expression.....
a rainbow smile from
ear to ear, the pampas grass
wiggles like a hula girl
on your dashboard
the creek ripples with
striated op art for eyes
that need something new
I find my favorite bench
plop down with my rucksack
nibble on cashews and mandarins
how could I possibly invent something
better than this
immersed in art
with snacks
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
