Sermons of Yester-years

An essay of cohorts
Penning years, unlocking doors
Sucking ice cream cones of
Subliminal mists…yester-years
Inhabiting images, recycling ghosts
Assumes changing postures, metamorphosis
Transcending a sentimental name, the fortress
Wherein investments gain
From abroad to an American street corner
Passages read by habitual voices
Out loud…minds climbing out of conventions
Divorcing separations, mirroring culture
No 2nd guessing, in the premise of life’s expression
Favorable parallels adventure into genius
Intellectual craftsmanship lifting sequence
1st class accommodations
Wellspring of ruddy faces
Flowing down wide sea windows, blind face
Like a quill shrieks of children echoed
Possibilities sagacity, diverse plateaus
Life reading the palms of mind
How powerfully succession unwinds
Fragile, yet, extremely powerful
The writer whose name is remembered
Quoting generations of music

echos with baggy pants

memory marbles in the pockets

depthy with sideboards on it
