Long Yuppies Poems

Because of you, I'm in a Seattle kind of mood
When I look out my window 

And see the rain drops gently falling all around
And I feel that special Seattle kind of chill

In my bones 
I...

I blink my eyes and then the world is gone. 

Open once again to see some peons upon the lawn.

They came to hear the Lion yawn and swipe a wife by dawn.

When she walks around this Rocky Mountain downtown;
With a pretty-in-pink style Mohawk;

A wild and crazy time

drive our fancy cars, smash guitars
as you listen to every word I say

Yup, here they come
 hippies, yuppies, kiddies and Millenials, generation X on the run
they gather at the restaurants and malls
 ten or twelve six feet apart walk along the walls
casually strolling pass the limited entry...

The box car is full of noise
white and black owls hoo-ing in the night
midnight almost here
Dice being slammed
fifteen!fifteen!
College yuppies talkin' loud
too loud for my ears
Flocks of good looking gals
of all ages, golden blonde hair
Big wide...

psyches of all bards and writers
synchronized crowd swimming in waters
yuppies and brave souls unheard by all
chanting audience in an imaginary stall
hearts we hide as words unfold
on paper and scrolls, always young not old
lasting ink or...
