perpetual jam!!!!!!!!!

[WIREMAN]

DAY-OOOOOOO
sun setting on
a 100 % beaut
of a day
made some music
with mi amigos
hung out at all
the right places
did some basho research
love that poet
tweaked one of my projects

"wise owl"

[the mingo]

it's overcast & warm
warm not just mild
warm and I'm thinkin' that
a simple refusal to look
either to the left or the right
would change things considerable
not overnight but from
one moment to the next
like silent thunder

[WIREMAN]

it's been awhile
shake willie shake
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[stilltrucking]

Watching Larger Than Life the bill murray flick
with tears streaming down my face
thinking about riding that New Delhi freight train

[stilltrucking]

Kind of sad I miss an elephant more than a lover

Me and King Tut
been a long time

hot and getting hotter
four hundreds in row
Getting up in the dark cause the best part of the day is two hours before sunrise

in the meantime
the wars continue
making me crazier
everyday

So I listen to David Letterman monologues
listening and hoping for a laugh
i need to laugh tears
maybe watch The Gods Must be Crazy tonight

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>submit

later>>>

I listen to Seven Years In Tibet David Bowie song and feel better
music, and cinnamon swirl oatmeal with ten grams of fiber are my blessings for the day.
think about Clay
looking for a blessing for him

and mistertroll said

I think it arrogant to suggest that the universe is inept in any way.

putting momma's ashes in blackwater falls
west by god tomorrow
got a new car and i'm heading for the hills
on my merry fuckin' way
makin' travel mixes now

this lonesome jam
thought about it today

saw 7 years in tibet recently
natives sticking their tongues out
at brad pitt
was a good flick

watching new true grit 2 night
saw a bit last night
kinda cool coen bros.take on west
jeff bridges a favorite of mine

jumpin jack alwayze talked about that san antone heat
did his basic training there in '48

we're mixing jack and sue's ashes manana
sending them down the falls
together again..........

[the mingo]

glad to see ya back on the line
we been shootin in the dark here
all the time but ain't that
how it is
let me tell ya mark i get these
jams goin in my head
can't even get them out
when i go to bed
been talkin to the dead late-ly
but they didn't seem very dead to-me
mixin the ashes with the water
let the water flow
that's the way to go
saw a guy today wants to
turn a chicken into a dinosaur
ho ho ho there's always more
let the bass player pick out the line
cause ya gotta have a place to hang things
first thought best thought
but I'm done thinkin' about this
just gonna let it rip
get my blister out
gonna top kick
gonna backspin
gonna let it come the way it wants to
the way we all get born
gonna face my skull head-on
that's where all the women live
anyways & i don't mean pretend
let the word come outta maryland
let it penetrate pennsylvania
let it blow over new york
and up to vermont where the people live
among the rocks
but now it's all changed
and i've forgot and a turtle
took it all away
they'll be another day

[WIREMAN]

waking from parisian dreams
destined to slumber
too cool in here
not wanting a beer
i reach for a mr. pibb

[the mingo]

This was wild, Mark, wow, the painting, shit I'm still lookin' at it and the rap holy aural angels man that thing fits so well with what I just came off of meaning two days up in the Adirondacks in the boats. We kayaked the Jessup, the Piseco River Outlet into Piseco Lake and last but not least a waterway we almost didn't go on but at the last minute decided to run it. There was nobody back in there, I mean NOBODY. No camps, no fisherman, no roads, no trails, no nothing but the water and the land. I couldn't speak it, everything we saw & felt and the way it got into us & I get back to the lodge to hear you sayin, "followed by a pack of animals" man no lie !!!! Thx Mark.

[WIREMAN]

for me late
but here to jam
runnin' rivers
falling water falls
all about flow
and life spice
all about being careful
of that carving knife
see how they run
tumblin beneath
the power of that fall
spin cycle
she popped out on about
the third plunge
gasping for air
shoulda listened to the
kayakers

"strawberry pie"....instrumental by wireman

[the mingo]

mark you got this shit DOWN
ain't it sweet being in your stride?
riding the ride?
strawberry pie is king o' the moon
this stuff gets in my ears and tracks across
my soul and ricochets off the inside of
my skull 'til I got all i can do
to just hold on to the wheel
grit my teeth and
drive man DRIVE !
I can't say it how much I love
listening to you RULE !

THANK YOU !

[stilltrucking]

I listened to her when she said it's too late
became my mantra
would of could of should have
but it's too late

Been thirty seven years come thanksgiving day since her last plunge
in all that time only one sad dream, all the others dreams since then been good.
Woke up feeling refreshed, and grateful.

strawberry jam
sugar free
with extra fiber

Dreams about potato pancakes and apple sauce
a kayak, a canoe a boat or a ship
my kingdom for a horse
a woman
or a boat

[jimboloco]

followed by a pack of hounds
hound dogs trailing my fears
keeping the pace just slow enough
throwing a scent of too much stuff
leaving it behind while the pack of dogs
gets tied up by the wind
and i go out of my mind
while i and my body run

[stilltrucking]

black swans
and tipping points
tits for tats
global thermonuclear war
peace is at hand
a perpetual jam
hearts keeps pounding rythm to the brain
smoke another cigarette cause i am so eager to gets out of dis body
float like a feather in the wind
or sink to the earths bubbling core
one pill makes me smarter
one pill makes me dumb
drugs and consciousness
my mind tries to hide
in the meantime
it summer and the living is easy
what's the scent of fresh peaches
and girls in their summer dresses

"a man will walk into hell with his eyes open, but even the devil can't fool a dog" my favorite twilight zone episode

I got bit in the eye by a dog
lest me cockeyed for years

[still.trucking]

my fears
I have only myself to fear
and twentieth century medicine
Dr McCoy compared it to the inquisition
startrek IV
here is my ass hole on fear jimbo
I mean hear is my opinion
my fears manifest
suicidal thoughts have manifested in my life
why am i in such a hurry to get out of my mind
my brain awash in chemicals and i read the the withdrawl symptoms
suicidal thoughts
jesus h christ
I got to quit smoking
a recurrent fear memory dream of suffocation
life against death
life is so sweet
I am mad to live
crazy to write
but not to be a martyr for my art
such as it is

and in the meantime
the spirit grows
glows
a perpetual jam
hanging with the cool cats on studio eight
no hurry
every thing on time on schedule in the flow
the cosmic dance
here we go round the mulberry bush

sincerely
in
fFriend ship
crazy jack
son of crazy mike
for years I have feared being homeless again
and still it happens to me time and again
like an old blues man
just my karma
