Record Collections
In a closet, stuffed in bags, My records gather dust. The player’s gone and speakers, too, But keeping them’s a must. My friend is giving hers away, But on the other side, My sister got my cousin’s batch, Passed to her when he died. I hear that vinyl’s coming back, Yet those of us of age, Remember our collections, Adding groups we saw on stage.* It was...

My heart beats like a hammer in my chest No respite, no rest, no rest, no rest Metaphorical corners that I am trapped in No action/reaction now could result in a win Withdraw out of the game as energy fails No direction to run, we're chasing our tails Time will pass, I'll let it do the healing It's just not sustainable...

Goliath was a big threat to Israel A giant with intimidating records Of military prowess which turned Israelite soldiers To a bunch of faithless cowards And to an army of lily livered derelicts As they capitulated in fear And let the sleeping dog lie While Goliath had his fill Threatening God’s own army But it took a lively faith and...

FROM A PAPER NO ONE READ
Am I allowed to touch the blue of the magazine? When stars otherwise kiss the somberness of the night? Am I allowed to collect clouds in their ephemeral charm And restore them their delectable delight to shed pain? Can I turn orbs of sweet dreams of my own Into the flavor that I love to color and add a dash of...

Premium Member Jimmy is Intent On Beating His Own Record
Jimmy was intent on beating his own record. Forty-six hours of straight video game playing. He heard some crashing outside. Thought it was a garbage truck. Never looked out. It would quit eventually. The bashing and crashing sounded closer now. More like Armageddon than a garbage truck. Jimmy turned up the volume on his console. Twenty-eight million and sixty-three his golden star said. He...

Drop the Needle On the Record Baby Head and Heels Deep In Love
Drop the Needle on the Record And that sweet soul music blast " Baby " Sorry " Grandad " A relic now from a previous age And when you do and it begins Listen very carefully to whence it starts To that beautiful cracking sound it makes And just sit back relax As it slowly takes and makes you drift further back and back in time And...

Premium Member 8400 Miles Nonstop
The bar-tailed godwit caught birddom by surprise When word got out just how far this bird flies A juvenile Limosa lapponica, satellite tag 2-3-4-6-8-4 flew nonstop from Alaska to the Tasmanian shore! 13,560 kilometers nonstop, eleven days and nights A new world record for marathon bird flights "From Alaska to Tasmania?
