The Freddy, the Twist, the HitchHiker too

60’s dances I love so.

Never dreaming they’d die....

Exposing its face—
The thumb of a hitchhiker
The thumb stops a car

And the traveler gets in—
Another story begins!...

yesterday, I was in paradise
the sun and sand the sea
spending pleasurable moments
with those that mean most to me

everything lays dormant
my spirit calm and free
recharging all of my energy
that's what Mexico does for me

as I leave it all behind
everything that I put to order
the past waiting with its thumb stuck out
like a hitchhiker at the border...

Stare beyond her shoulder, long for more,
Capacity is reached, you pour more.

Hitchhiker smiles broadly, climbing in,
Seeking new horizons, it bore more.

Cross the bridge tomorrow, pull the blinds
Sewing up the lesion, it tore more.

Rubbing out the damn spot to conceal,
Sun succumbs to darkness, there’s four more.

Reflect on no return, feel time’s breath,
Transgressions stain your hands, but you’re more....

It's dark and i'm tired
dazed with flickering lights.
I see a flowing robe
in the middle of the road,
with a thumb out for a ride.
I slow to see - a car pulls over,
my sister who has been gone
picks up the robe and
goes the other way.
With his hands he gives direction
she pays no attention, and
takes him far away.That is 
why the black cat which ran into
the street turned around with fear
when hit by the light....

Red Dog an Aussie of Gypsie proclivities
Pawed rides through the Outback without civilities
When he wished to depart
He let rip a grand fart
Then jumped from the car with much facility
                                              by Robert Gorelick


Red dog the regular hitchhiker 
Once leapt up behind a bike rider
The driver rode fast  
Until he got gassed
And Red dog flew off in a hyper

"That was a hitchhiker"
    just a line on TV as I passed through
     I started thinking about cuckoo       
                             hitchhikers, parasites
      none the same
    a spiral of thoughts, little hooks that join
           I mean no judgement
     even the parasite plays a crucial role
            so much happens as lines cross
      as we interact
          perhaps rationed, time limited
   barely cognisant sometimes 
              about what just occurred...

Why does no one understand,
When issues attack the sweetest,
You see a hitchhiker lone,
Know they've walked with turmoil.
May it be skewed idealism,
Or unexplainable passion,
Seems a person can get caught up,
In more than one fashion.
Who here comprehends,
When the innocent get kicked,
The traveling hearts divine the throne,
But do they feel that royal?
Insurmountable greed,
Toward the one who sheds some light,
Listen to what the Hiker says,
And everything will be alright....
