It was the corner of E.Colfax and Humboldt Southwest I remember Cold Thanksgiving Colder that December Small room off the side shared it with my dog, a pallet, and a slide down on the parallel lines Offset beveled and conical splines Rounded men by bashing rocks falling down the mountain...

I was an ant at a time when time was unbent I walked my way through the maze fate had set but failed to note the roads without end the things that could have been were I made to think of them but I wasn't so there I was at the end of a life well spent, or so I thought, at the time

Verse Two Plus B Part and Chorus
Just trying to keep it real ya'll trying to relate Keeping light prescribed not to pontificate Staying in the long view and living on the plain a black and white stand on a pallet blue pain (Let me proclaim! Let me explain! Let me exclaim!)
Been a hip hop life yo a hip hop life Changes come with strife it's a hip hop life...

A new way to measure wealth in other than accrued on paper or cyber systems of increasingly artificial intelligence might be in the satisfaction of status postponed until a guy or a girl or the ghost of either or even neither runs the express check-out 12 items max only please No checks. No chokes No bad puns. Holy smokes. So much fun So little time

The Line Formed On The Sand Where Waves Feathered The Shore Are Littered With Bits Of Haste And Waste And The Broken Shells Of Broken Animals At Once Bathed In Foam And Salt And Silent Screams Of Meaning And The Ears And Eyes Of Innocent Children Yearning To Be Free Of Boundaries Under The Sun And Within The Music Of The Night Echoing Off The Open Sky And Reaching Down To The Bottom Of An Empty Well Called The Ocean Of Denial

I saw the sun come up
I saw the sun go down
I had a coffee and drunk it down
It kept me up all night
Until the sun showed it light
And it showed me my plight

A large black salamander guards the area of the spigot He seems satisfied there, under paving stones and incidental life water Not inconsequentially, his kingdom boasts survival

Under the tortured memory tree I saw you; you saw me Under the stain of pride and grief Trust is slain by rusted teeth Being hunger; bade the strife Beyond the tender breath of life For the love of tatters and broader shoals Wading the textured waters...

Cardinal Seen
He comes to the feast every day fungal eye and matted crown His red feathered body bleached by disease His beak deformed and flaking Quietly I watch him struggle to crack sunflower seeds and listen intently to his joyous cheeps Marvelous the sight, I fret knowing he is not long for this world
Edit:
The weeks passed since those words He thrives Appearing as a miniature vulture, red feathered and completely bald now the growth from his upper beak at least an inch long he tips his head to the side and scoops sunflower seed, and ever so gently places it in the mouth of a female companion How? Why? Marvelously so

Like riding a bicycle, playing card clipped to the front forks with mother supplied clothespin. Like Steve McQueen's great escape; suddenly tangled in a barbed wire fantasy of freedom. Must have been the Joker...

Yeah I'm a bad boy, but I coulda been worse. Coulda scuffed your shoes, and wrecked your hearse. Coulda soured your wedding, and forgotten a verse. Just waiting for the ax to fall; that birthday you fell from the sky.
It goes this way; then darker. Then dark. Death on a street sign, then hitting the mark. Shadows of children; the sign of a spark. Three suns down, just under a stall. That birthday we fell from the sky.

ok. I'll risk it.
the last three years. The last three months the last three days.
the last three hours the last three minutes the last three seconds.
I could paint it for you or sculpt it Or sing it
I could play it on a harmonica or a drum or two blades of grass
really! remind me to show you to hear me
play a song that begins in grief and ends in joy.
remind me. don't forget to...
