till once a high note
caused a bird to float
back down to earth less one wing.

The Old Man and the Singer- MysticThe Old Man and the Singer- Mystic
it was like the old man
aged and rustic
a Singer sewing machine
oddity to find in a river
rusted, like the old man
orange, colored rust
carried downstream
by a strong current and
a stronger shoulder
contemporaries they were
him and the machine
tan and tawny
both had spent...

Loch David Crane, 1976
I dreamed about 'ya in your pixie shoes
and watched ‘ya stomp on all my blues;
I dreamed about 'ya in your fishnet tights
and how ‘ya kept me up all night.
I dreamed about 'ya...

The Masked SingerThe Masked Singer is an entertainer on stage in masquerade
A baker by day; a singer by night with accolade
The Masked Singer dresses as a male and sometimes female
He is a ***** but with many personalities of a strong male
The masked one bakes bread in...

Paris Blues SingerPARIS BLUES SINGER
Her voice is dreams, out through the fog and mist,
behind a concertina's mournful sound,
through halos made of light streetlamps have kissed
as Paris goes to sleep with dreams it's found.
She sounds as if her song will make her die,
there in the cabaret before she's...

Who was thrown in the Sing Sing pokey
They claimed he was off key
And his voice was croaky
So he killed them at karaoke!...

The Singer (Narrative Dialogue)The singer looks at the now empty stage
His voice guarded deep in his warm throat
Shielded by a high neck shirt he wore
Singing with passion from down within
Rehearsing day and night until it’s right
Blended rhythms and notes run the scales
Clinging in smoky night clubs like a...

For my job was going nowhere, like blooms with noplace to hide.
I had for long had a dream, of becoming a world famous singer,
But instead I sang backup, for my best friend, a real...

Of a singer who is sadly now long gone,
Whose story needs some increased recognition,
He could p’raps be described a special one.

And sadly died in nineteen eighty one,
His memory and music though will...
