Old Man A'Lone Wimpers Into Thee End (should be ashamed!!!)
" O, to hold a fine young lady one more time" - Tom Russell, from: ~ The Pugilist At 59 ~
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
All the fine old men, fattened &
broken of heart
mind, spirit,
bellowing last gasps (last gasps) of ego'shit
&
i'magined
glory Of NeverWas,
khaki Dockers cracking
wit the strain of need to "be somebody", OR just
an old freakmisfit
selling songs
in the street
amidst scorn
& a few sustaining bucks
of pitying appreciation
then an everyday bum at beach, shirtless shameless showing
every flaw to sun, sea, moon, blueSky, stormClouds,
& the ladies feigning
some 'kind' inte
rest,
but not ever to call, nor be seen
again, (even the old, unpretty)
(how many many could there've been?)
heartbreak, & Heart Failure(chronic,congestive) FAILURE, yet
still a'live
to walk the land in weary'd, everTired, slowwwwwwwMotion......
irreparably L a Z y
o, dear (of me), no love nor lover.......7 years,
12 years,
15 years ( naive enough to 'feel'
that this was Real),
for all best intentions, aye
must've been a fake in the
House of Love('s illusion).........tough luck
tough shit.
Not much sense in looking for such Life(love) again...
in all 'it's' beauty, still it falls to separation(from love), grief (sudden or drawwwn out),
& the moronics of heaven,hell, or(preferable) non-being.
~Try, as one might, to pre-pare for thee True Light/Dark in No-Thing-at-All~
I've dedicated all my songs to You, my Love[s]....horns & flutes of wordless praise
until my final silence
takes me
'There'[????}
