(a poem in Senryus) Let’s rerun the play, take up strings, so the puppets can start fresh their dance. Summon the old ghosts— Shakespeare’s doomed heroes —pronounce them reborn. Recall the actors, lead horses from their pastures, raise the curtains. Pay Shylock his pound of flesh, give Richard his horse, let Viola love anew. Old, ever-hallowed villainy, once banished, has taken new stage. Human suffering, live—don’t fret, you won’t miss it —it’ll come to you. . . Songs for this: End of the innocence by Don Henley The Perfect Idiot by Fievel Is Glauque . . Songs for this: End of the innocence by Don Henley The Perfect Idiot by Fievel Is Glauque

Don Henley is one of my favorite Singers and drum players. I have followed the Eagles from the late 70's my friend Jose who is an attorney now turned me on to them. Loved their Desperado album one of the first. I in my earlier years was in a Rock band as a drummer and I loved playing all Eagles songs and Don Henley solo albums. Don Henley is so incredibly talented, loved his Cass County album and JD Southers New Kid In Town, contributions, Jackson Brown and now added to the band Vince Gill.

I think the 'Desperado" may be one of the 10 best albums ever made. There's not a bad song on it - and there are several heartbreakers. My roommates and I were dancing to '21' this year because we all turned 21 this year. =]

The very first poem I wrote on this site was on the Eagles. It was titled the Eagles concert. My favorite band of all time.Miss Glenn Frey so much I wrote a poem on Glenn Frey when he was no longer with us, so sad. I also wrote A Tribute To Glenn Frey. Excellent poem Anais. It brought back memories. Thank you for sharing...
