The Avenue of Gastronomic Delight
The Avenue of Gastronomic Delight
Down the broad avenue called Gastronomic Delight
City life gathers when twilight awakens;
In eateries, drive-ins, greasy spoons and taverns – jumpin’ joints jumpin’
Like Snoopy with his dish doing the suppertime dance;
Lured by...

OLD TESTAMENT
It was wisdom that I sought within those venerable old pages
Yet found tales of folly, arrogance and cruelty in profusion
Where were knowledge, truths, enlightenment, refined throughout the ages?

Big Mo

was suddenly fired,
team owners interviewed

Big Mo outlawed
all sales of...

Dead Man's Walk With a Collie
I rode a longhorn steer clear across Texas
this summer and no one noticed until
I rode into New Mexico."That is strange, senor"
A vaquero said standing beside the road.

mixed with honey mustard grunting;
these inhaling engorging souls are
finding the emotional precipice,
high up and dangling,
hanging by french fried ropes,
smothered in thousand island arrhythmias.
here come the...
