Show Business In My Blood Blues

I got a bullet proof theory

 

There's been a balloon sighting

 

Outside of bounds

 

Saucer hovering like a beautiful

 

Golden penny

 

The shadow in the corner

 

Told the sofa

 

There's no Santa

 

Robots are squealing

Full disclosure: 2009

Give up The Greys!

 

Full disclosure 2010

Tell us the story sir

 

Full disclosure 2011

Give up The Greys!

 

Full disclosure 2012

We can take it

We're full-grown

 

Full disclosure 2013

Give up The Greys!

We are in a physical space

Everything is alive or dead

Fountain

Active

Standing in the backyard

Checking on

The Mater Brothers

(My tomato plants)

and

My

Hanging

Baskets

Wondering about the whole thing

 

Asking:

Who's got your flag?

Who knows your skin?

Who do you trust not to kill you?

Where are the sociopaths?

How can I avoid them?

 

Can

I

Write upon your sidewalk?

"Imaginary Dogs Love Pearl Jam"

 

May I draw a door upon your wall?

"Imaginary Cats Dig Free Jazz"

We

Saw

 

One

Car

Broad-side

 

Another

Car: A mini-van

("Smash and slide.")

Ploughing

Down

 

Later: The Cars

were gone

and

a

policeman

was

putting

his

orange

cones

back

into

his

trunk

 

x

 

There's more than one way

 

To play

 

With

 

A dog.

 

x

 

Ice

and

Ice Cream

 

French Onion Dip

 

A bottle of Gatorade

 

A loaf of bread

 

Strawberries

 

Two bananas

 

and a Payday

 

x

 

Hamburgers

and

Home
