I jotted these down while listening to my son and daughter converse with their father during a recent short road trip: "disturbing my warp" "sub-text messages in a pounding head vein" "lame-sided tedium" "insubordinate eyes" (chuckle this was one of those stop looking at me arguments, and when my daughter asked why, my son answered because you have--and thus the quote.) "born a has-been" "rubber trouble" "just enough gristle to breed maggots" (a commentary on a certain girl singer) "highway rhythms are just like ZEN" "mental albatross" "even the sun is glad for the night" "a chocolate chip cookie tree" "Understanding--102" "a pointless #2 lead pencil" "lockers without locks" "one droopy sock sucks" "half-baked rolls in sad red sauce" "A's on an idiot's curve" "even safety razors bite" "they'll beat you up, for being smart" and last but not least? "a voice like white noise, cranked to nine um...have fun, and let's leave the psychology to the ones I will pay the big money to later, eh? |

LOL! These are great! It's amazing what you hear when you just sit back and really listen, isn't it? If my muse can't do something with at least ONE of these, then it is truly dead! Still smiling and laughing here. Thanks for sharing this little tidbits. |

highway rhythms are just like ZEN Long days and hot sun can make even thoughts of Iambe waver like a mirage just over the horizon that fools you into spending the last three dollars you have trying to get a drink I'd been gone for about two weeks now headed down the west Texas road where highway rhythms are just like ZEN I think I got lost inside the sound of hearing her voice in my mind and holding her body next to me. It would be another night before I pulled into the yard hoping she was out there bent over in her overalls as she worked on someones newest old truck so that I could come down off the road before she spoke Good thing I had a credit card cause it was going to take more than one drink tonight just to wipe the dust of her out of my eyes |
