Modesty

There was once a town where the lady who owned the dress shop would protect the modesty of her window mannequins by placing slips on them when she changed their attire with the seasons.

I lived in that town.

Now I don’t.

Twisties

Do you remember the time

Your flatmate let me in

And when I entered the kitchen

You were sitting in the window

Slender and wonderful,

Framed in light,

Peacefully eating Twisties?

You smiled at me.

I picked on you

For eating Twisties.

I had to.

You were too beautiful.

The Birth Of Comedy

Inside the cave a man dances like a fool, to keep the people laughing and distracted from the storm. 

Outside the cave a shaman dances like a fool, to keep the people frightened and focused on the storm.

Flautist

A flautist
Is a feather,
Floating
On the wind,
Seeking
A hat
To adorn.

Kiss Science

There oughta' be a Nobel Prize. 

No physicist observes evidence more accurately,
No mathematician makes quicker calculations.

Does she want him to kiss her? Cheek or lips?

Decide.

Now.


There oughta' be a Nobel Prize.

A Text Message From A Friend

A while back I was playing a regular Thursday late night gig with a quirky psychadelic jazz band. All was going sweetly until the venue owner decided to become our musical director, told us to change what we played or ship out. He who pays the piper and all that, we were all on our way to what we knew would be the last gig, not feeling too excited about going, when we all received the following text message. It came from a friend who has forgotten more about music than I'll ever know. I quote it exactly, I still have it on my phone.

We played a great final gig.
