NEW POST

every few decades a great talent shows

up and stands above and beyond all.

Susie Clevenger turned me onto

Laura Pergolizzi; what a fabulous talent.

cannot get enough of that music...

now they tell us hell has frozen over and

I'll need make new plays for retirement.

darn it! isn't that just how it goes?

get all excited and bang, rug gets

pulled out from under us. 

let us not put off until tomorrow

what we can do the next day

or several days later than that.

we were so much

then grew into oursevles

and we were nothing more

than nothing ever was

and our fluttering selves

fluttered apart and flew

and our songs sang blue

and blue was our muse

and those blues flew and flew

ah! then yesterday fell down;

leaving a big mess for cleanup today,

with plenty left for tomorrow!

and have a pocket full of attributes,

and no hope in hell of selling any.

and such quality, these attributes.

sell for big money where circumstances

permit such transactions to be legal.
