The Full Count
In the beginning there was only Speed.
Off the cuff, off the hook, sometimes off the chain. In the right place at the right time with a pen in hand and enough head space to run. Usually a short riff but a rant or recollection could go off sideways. Hang on tight.
In the beginning there was only Speed.
Maybe I’m preoccupied. Or just occupied. So many unnecessary fixes, pre- and/or suf-, maybe I’ve been occupied since before the beginning. Maybe my mind is just occupied. I live here, for one.
Dammit Ralph,
My passport’s expired again. I haven’t. Not yet…
We could write poetry about pie
all night long at the diner
I love the things that come spilling in
over the booth with the coffee
and the cake at the diner.
You’re getting there, Vessel
Give until you have nothing
But space to receive
I don’t know what thinkers do
but if nebulae were cubes
I’d be a physicist I think
Time. Time. Only a little. Only my share. I respect time so much more than they do out there. Out there Time is such a poorly executed concept.
Buckle up, Babysitters…
Life’s pretty darn good a’hauntin’ around.
