rockers needed wigs for a ball

cause theirs didnt fit well at all

for they dyed and cropped

and totally chopped

till they fit their daughters toy doll.

Sex drugs and rock n' roll,
a rockers lifestyle may seem
the way to go.

You would
think they're worth their
weight in gold, yet gold can
be melted and poured away.

A rockers lifestyle may lead
to his own doomsday...

Rock is still allowed,
Yong and old so proud,
Teen queens and studs,
Shocking olden fuds,
To old rockers, we wave,
From our youth, a fave,
Every age of yore,
Will blame those before,
No limits on rock today,
You still rocking, USA?...

                    Smirk
             sweet, humorous           
  unsettling, fun-loving, revealing
Punk-rockers, Saints, Sharks, Jesters 
  enticing, manipulating, masking 
             salty, vexatious 
                    Smile...

BLUE STREAK

Hair dyed red with a streak of blue.
The sort of thing punk rockers do,
Not something I’d expect of you.
I wonder what possessed you to.
You say it’s time for pastures new.
But, Mother, you are ninety-two!

Poetry is inspirational rap
It sounds like a tap dancers
Tap, tap

Poetry floats
Like keynotes
“C” minor or
“A” flat

It’s the Jazzman’s skit scat
The Blues man’s fat
The Rockers bang their guitars
Like a baller uses his bat

Poetry
Is just
Like
That

Just 
Like
That

Just 
Like 
That...

Our synaesthesia is for free,
Music is the muse for me,
It's in my blood, you see,
Images imaginary,
Elvira Madigan wakes to see,
Mozart play Mozart lucidly.
Swooner songs sound so silly,
Old rockers croon so vividly,
Funny lyrics in my brain,
Sounding a little deranged,
(It is hereditary 
in my family)
Yes, Synaesthesia is for free,
Smurfette's songs, so silly....

Cutting through the consciousness 
of the U.S.A. 
Children of Chuck Berry and Elvis 
Girls gyrating wildly in the corners of the space
While the odor of beer 
fills the room 
My ears are full of sound 
And I jump up and down 
Glad I came to this place!
The noise drowns my sorrow 
So who cares about tomorrow?

This poem was inspired by Chuck Berry's song "Hail. Hail Rock and Roll"...

Sculptors carve their rocks,
With very sharp-bladed tools;
They free the art from the stone.

At many concerts are people stoned;
They come to hear great rock;
Musical instruments are rockers tools.

With their trade’s tools;
The Rolling Stones,
Never fail to please with their rock.

If you carve rock with your tools; beware sharp ones if you’re stoned!

Family nights on front porch
Fireflies with cold light as torch
Moonlight shadows on the lake
How much more can a heart take

Tepid breeze whispers softly
With creaks of rockers and swings
Wood frogs croak mostly off key
Until the whippoorwill sings

men are referred to as "that Galah over there,"
 a grey n pink parrot they aint rare... 
or "Drongo Jack" from the city town, 
duck the uppercut a coming down. 
Greased hair Rockers they were cool,
 leather jackets , shielas drooled... 
sometimes just a bloke, 
sucking on a beer or coke, 
altogether cool, 
vertical aint no vegativebool....

so there Linda-Marie,

how it was or is,
way south of the border,

Within my rockers,
That does rattle and battle off the horror towards the opposites of the beauties of life, that crosses the feat over standing well above the allowed thoughts of the ignorance heard from the cold and meaningless words of those that assume that they do know me,
And yet not one would ever understand, as indeed people hear their own mouths before hearing any story. Acknowledge this as you'll then know for a reason of my silence..." -Ds-...

A cosmonaut called Anatoli was diagnosed with acute E.coli
When he became somewhat delirious, they thought it was Bacillus cereus
When plated out under a prism, it looked instead like Botulism
Have you all gone off your rockers, it’s a strain of Staphlycoccus
And then thrown in just as a bonus, a rumour spread of Pseudomonas
No way you nincompoops cried Hans, it’s Candida albicans. 
We’re all agreed the team replied........ just after Anatoli died!...

A rocking horse is a child's toy, usually shaped like a horse and mounted on rockers similar to a rocking chair. Predecessors of the rocking horse may be seen in the rocking cradle, the tilting seats used during the Middle Ages for jousting practice as well as the wheeled hobby horse. The toy in its current form did not appear before the 17th century, though some conflicting sources note medieval manuscripts including references to carved rocking horses, presumably of the toy kind....
