I tried to catch my breath from the horrible smell that was stifling me inside
I did not know which way to turn...

and I'm feeling about as ragged as my jeans
Mali went home to lay down just before this rain
started spinning this old man's mind back...

The unsung heroes of the open plains
The outlaw bandits like Jesse James 

Cut throat thieves and black jack hustlers 
Green horn Cowboys and long horn rustlers 

They all stood the Cowboys test
A stetsons man a...

At the beach, digging beneath the pier
harvesting minute shells;
sharks teeth and all sorts of goodies; 
I make jewelry you see; Cowrie earrings paired
exclusively with brown Tiger-Eye; a tasty treasure, 
eye candy of a semi-precious nature.

A rainy day on beale street for music folks.

Trying to hide the moments of their joy.

I happened upon this soft running creek
My face and neck were burning just a bit
my stomach was getting a little weak

with her bass-line booty.

Which way did he go? We really don't...

The wind laughs softly
The full moon with the stars
In the sky,
As I lie near the fountain 
Gazing at the 
Exquisite beauty 
Of the nature.
It's the charm of the moon
Opens so many thoughts 
And dreams.
The moon
Looks...

Madder then the mad hatter 
wearing a black bandanna, 
the  word spinning 
head scrambling 
lyrical attacker,
taking your  words 
and pinning them to the wall with a  dagger, 
head so spun 
you stumble...

In daytime I wear a Lone Rangers mask
At dusk it is my Zorro mask and scarf
In between I walk around with raccoon families
On a leash to avoid confusion and the virus too
A red bandanna and...
