Syncopation

Syncopation Having just sent out a batch of new music based on middle kingdom Egyptian vocals I begin to wonder if it is not ego trying to triumph over my sister-in-law's annual tomes delivered each Christmas with full face and no nonsense although she has weakened and laughed when it was just too good Depressed in Akumal till she asked me about art My family And the future That was before the wind bothered Susan And the men stopped Late night margueritas A darkly lit movie theatre Years ago Two sisters Two faces Two lives Beautiful When the lights came up Then came Kids Car keys Small trains Grey picnics Thank god Someone in the kitchen Saying I wasn't so bad Saved my life Visits to a warm home Seeing my past art Jogs Pleasant Memories .... Someone Always saying: "Eric how is your art coming along?" And someone else. You Saying "I love the one that looks like you are entering a garden"
