Signs

words in space-

book
Ed Ruscha (b 1937) famed for 're-inventing' the artists book
Is knowing what's known
enough, or must you know it
beyond the pretense
to feelings and perception ~
with bright light glow in its shine
o temptation
ó glamor
enticement !
By God or
devil I beg;
proceed in peace
or Vade retro !!!
Retro
Last fall I took time watching a falling leaf,
Underneath it was something like my name
When I could clearly see,it became another name
I took the leaf and head back home in disbelief
The fifties brought on dazzling star Lucille
Zany and bubbly she was ideal
O like no other sitcom
Pure entertainment for Mom
Laughing at each week's new crazy ordeal

When I was a child
I like to go outside of the house
Because staying at home is boring
Growing up, I like to go back home
Because life outside is boring.
If I could go back the past
Once in my life
I would like to have
An innocent childhood life
Back then.
A modern trimming,
Grin and bear it.
The slap of a buckle,
Reminiscent of the squeeze.
Laces bloodied,
From a prayer of acceptance.
Breathing is optional.
The shove to a corner,
Start early for pattern recognition,
Bind the idea prematurely.
Numbed pain,
Limited motion.
Embrace wind through the long locks,
It's only an illusion of progression.
“I’m not old – I’m retro”
Says the sign that looks antique.
I bought it ‘cause I liked
Its sassy message, tongue-in-cheek.
But really, who embraces old
Or elderly or aged?
Why, even senior can be wrong
When someone’s years are gauged.
So I will stick with retro
‘Cause it sounds so cool and hip.
