catholic chevyholics the low slow easy men doing the sixty six in no motion wearing the dainty eye girls fresh from their dance dollars they wrinkle their ink when flexing the willing waiting for sighs to slide across bench seat leathering and for a hand to handle wanting gravy in blue is the mood music that stirs paint into neon and makes the bullets stay in boxes just the metal can go to war today and through the night too into indigo to know the bones of their gypsy wheels ___________ daark (doing the 66) |

gravy in blue is the mood But past the deserted buildings at the side of the road, there are mountains in the distance... an instant lift of mood to this reluctant flatlander. *S* Enjoyed this very much, my friend... both poem and picture took me far from cubicle. *S* |

It's been decades since I've been on 66... always loved the vastness, being at one easily with the lonliness of the spaces. Enjoyed the photo, loved the words. |

The poem was great, never been on 66, wish to see it if I ever hit the road. Also the picture goes well with the poem |

Dark Stranger - it's been a long time since I've driven route 66. The place in your photo I've seen when driving I believe. Geez, things do change with time... BC |

Yo, DS. Got my kicks on Route 66 today, fer sure. Well done, oh chronicler of the highways and byways, the leather and the flesh, the oil and the exhaust. Way cool, man. Peace Sutra 25: Remember that a pile of ordure is simply that: Seek not to give it meaning. |
