caroling the candlelight conniptions
like gravy mouthed milking
smalltalk in high heels with knees
that have tattoos from escalators

sometimes my mind in rotogravures
spurring a galloping gypsy rocking horse
with my pockets full of lincoln faces
when you wanted washintons wanted posters

but still the ride is acceptable
rimming without tires makes the eyes
of strangers wonder why the music
though they don't know the songs

they do sing along with mashed faces
leaving other strangers on the glass
that even they don't recognize tomorrow
but then again neither did we before

or after for that matter, most purposefully

Daark..alley behind the avenue in moseytown
3am til sundown..

That alley makes for a long day of inspiration, doesn't it?

That title is really enigmatic, dear D., but
I just checked the meaning of "conniptions" and suddenly I got a picture of the whole.

Like always, so very unique.

Love,

... and in those conniptions, we learn that some strangers have never really been strangers.
