A Streetcar Named G Major

Clang, clang, clang, toots a trolley: X-s-teams, though it's not the same San Fran by the Bay, remembrance connects, perspective redeems, sound stirs, 'Mathis', "It's Not For Me To Say". Maintained posture as my observance probes, heedless complacency, schemed convenience, the prate news reader provokes our earlobes, heroines chat as a girl grasps missed-chance. Tram's next stop, the conductor ring updates, abides fixed whiles, a life away smokes forth, traffic noise flowing, like manmade primates, shrieks giving birth...streetcar desired...part. Ding, ding, ding, went the bell; attuned Judy, "Voices of Spring", scratched slippers of ruby.
