wrapping the past in present jam

deja vu is loopin on my ipod
old tunes in re-mix
flowers for effect
strobe light for distraction
almost as if i'm here
blink once for yes
nod twice for maybe
tap, tap, tap to drive them crazy

walk the deathrow sashay
all the same
give or take a century

plant rosemary for scent
lily of the valley for posterity
scoop up the earth to remember it by
i fill my locket with locks of bald playwrights

words are valiantly plugging the dike
or am i rembrandt in a reincarnation of no particular import
a bamboo mat in a pale steel vault

judih on the razor's flip
free flow
like holding a baby bird
the contact resounds
sweetly & completely

baby bird flips me a feather

camera records blurring velocity

words over-easy
metarotational cognitive sass
paris & a killer crew
ferrycross the mersey
temper the riots with a cool fusion vibe

everything turned
upside down
no place between
space
a 'tweener
no weezer
11 something
wound and wired

floating between
catching a glimpse then losing my drift
mindless drift on a windbeam
my heart a kite with no string
satellite of hope

satellite of hope
hope channel
channel hope
shuttle deploys
orbits
planned rendezvous

want to snatch us
and bring us back to earth
but that ain't gonna happen
we're gonna stay
cling to hope
and drift and dream

golden cages open
she flies above
free
they her and her
and him and him
they
flow
the word tripped
creating calligrific
crystal ships
writers r poets
or the other way around
seeing all around me
the goddess
loving the instant
every 1 of 'em

pass presence
past pretense
condor pasa
pasta intense
primavera
espiranza
sleeves wet
beneath the candle
old ryokan waxing
ikkyu spending the night
gogol bordello
jake said, "the BAND man!"

like rumi
like natives around
a big fire

fortunate son who has not seen
the death row sashay
but still believes
time's ticking
heart beating
and I got nothing but time
give or take a heart beat

time comes when
it's not on your side
but maybe
"yes it is!"
time
tickin' & tockin'
bellies gettin' bigger
hair thinner
talents better
acceptance stupendous
yes it is!
