Premium Member Lennon and Napalm
The Beatles split up so mystically -pronto the Vietnam spine came back together some branded the blame into Yoko some tied a wreath of thorns on the reds. Imagine time moving queerly along- Lennon was so very seductively shot rice paddies are still pocked with craters where peasants' cast ancient nets into ponds. The Beatles will never peace back together. Vietnam will never...

Paul wrote songs he sang with his guitar. The “cute” one, he has come amazingly far! The “smart” one John went successfully solo, but one tragic day got murdered by a nut. George, smoker, lead guitarist and spiritual, “quiet” one, got cancer. He’d composed “Here Comes the Sun.” Ringo, the Beatles’ drummer, met his second wife filming “Caveman.” They’ve enjoyed a long, rich life....

he's a sweet harmonica home Joe soft steel raven, bending blues dripping honey from her spoon nothing quite says melancholy like a harp in cupping wah-wah glow for endless grooves, a winding show playing Take Me Home Country Road and Lennon's riff in Love Me Do with gracious silk, a satin throw a trip to the moon in a single note around the cosmos, her...

Imagine all the songs not written Dying with you on that cold winter night Imagine all the first-dance songs Never learned because he took your life Imagine the endless love songs Never bringing together two hearts as one Imagine the songs not written Meant to rekindle memories Of the old and young Tonight I dream of Strawberry Fields Of Mysterious places to tour I dream of...

Breakfast At the Truck Stop
intersections of highways where lives intersect conversations with waitress beg more conversation spelling the moment a morning spell waking softly the countryside awakens sun through window the calling of early sun promise of a day filled with promise beginnings rise from endings as the day begins boundless hope visions of horizons unbound stories countless stories and passages and enlightened journey to light...

Eye candy of literacy Sit with me under the poet tree It's colorful leaves with windy wet dreams Glowing growing holy wise sandy seas Raining sonnets psalms songs of gold Beige yesterday, neon now, future silver soul Of foreign of home Of saint sinner some other zone This black leaf is Emily So dark smart sharply bleak The red leaf rouge and profound As Alice Walker's...

So This Is Over
So This is Over A living legend now dead. All grief and sorrow Flows through my head. I can't understand Why such things must be. I wish there was someone Who'd explain it to me. John Lennon was human This we cannot deny. But, I can't understand Why he had to die. Was his resurgence Not meant to be? For creativity and love Is what the world needs. When I was...
