Greater the mocking of pubescent princesses
Who prance and twirl and collect tokens
From admirers like shells on a...

I’ve heard whisperings,
rumors of a new manifest destiny.
What that entails, I can’t be sure.
But it’s bound to happen.

So you’ve been discarded
Like the trash you thought you were
And all the fears you can’t defer
Steal the heart you left unguarded

It's been a good run
To the back side of sixty,
The short side of time.

First Hollywood kiss
Behind a pink crepe myrtle.
Thanks, Patsy Werner.

Didn't help me to focus;
So, my mind wandered.

Surfed Bonzai Pipeline,
Big waves...
