OUCH!: Poem of the Day/// hbz

I Accidentally Had a John Lennon Night
 
In the tradition: John Lennon
is King
("Still.")

Further: In the tradition:
The first two
solo albums
Plastic Ono Band and Imagine
Are the highest mark
as an expression of an actual life in action and in reflection
The story of one of us: A Being
"Pure art"
"Rock of blues"
"Rock of artistry"
 
The music is masterfully minimal
Soulfully played
 
Recorded by Phil Spector
("He was a genius in a crazy wig.")
 
John's guitar tones are raw landmines
His piano is family
 
Plastic Ono Band and Imagine
are above "masterpiece"
They are Intimate Conversations
 
A man you know
telling you
where he's at
with love and hate and yesterday and
what he concludes to have meaning and
how he genuinely is
("How can you grade an intimate encounter with an old friend?")
 
That's why these two records are the zenith moment
 
John Lennon meant whatever he was saying
("Listen to "Give Me Some Truth" and tell a friend.")
 
John Lennon will always be a relevant artist
because the human condition is constant
John Lennon exposes his
and let's it out on vinyl in his prime
Us at our luckiest
("Life made better.")
