Valiant's various personas,
I love you, guys!
I have a vision of your guys playing lovers leap-frog,
fists sunk deep into the cracks of each other's man-ginas,
the world on fire around you but it's really just a disco ball that makes it seem so--
another trumpery-fakery of our times is all, so not to worry--
while my crew is led around in a Chinese fire drill of a clusterf*#k of a tits-up operation
that I would have been better off soloing.
Situation normal--all f*#ked up but we keep on poemizing all the same.
And the sauce is not everything, oui, mon ami?
Bone chance.

The heat broke it is still very wet, making the approaches treacherous its all that I can do, to motivate, alone as I dothen well, for the head I take pictures, lkots & klots of strange There Is More to that Car Story ( I'll never get to tell it - though well)
a, my blind post, sometimes they fall so far from the dime,
Well off to the far side
Way away from the point on the head of the pin
you all are dancing on
at the moment
so glad to read, like some well loved oily rag,
what is that old oil brand?
as it were , it can to be a sweet thing when all the lurkers add.
What has
Is
What is has been
as for the tome, is it that that needz? it not only
but too
it breaths
the sneeze is weak in the gneez

thinkin' on not saving them pearly whites, sure wipes out any savings that might or might not be there if need be - there,
Pearly White!
I was sitting outside the dentist's office,
chillin' in the parking lot,
while the boy spurt meets the piper,
I'll be paying.
brush or they will leave ya'!
When I look left and this passes I had the rig out so I caught the pic.Then a good half hour latter, it was in front of me. and what are the chances that we are heading the same way?So, it is game onhelp from above? trafficthere are back roads then there are arterial roads that are back ways into clustrasububia.Then a chance to wave, to wave down my target, Stalking comes natural, to some.

In situ . . .

So I wait
Im in luv with a big'un

She is A BETTY
As beauty Runs
It runs deep in
Her
I hope to steal a picture,
But

She was asista, and a baby mama
not a dental Hygienist
She is working toward that one
I'm gonna go maKE MY RUN
//edit,8/26// some ways this was a home town show.
Ive More fond memories,
of the EelRiver shows, more Too!
I often see the smoke, but still, wish it were so.
though id indented, & Intended to make a place . . .
(then,at the moment, trying to pass all the pathos)
(of the passing's of J Mcain, the last&only Big R republican.)
( & Tom Frost & Jeff Lowe, thats a rope team, huh?)

Seems hard now seemed hard then
& well that we can & do
Wish to all the healing, of kind thoughts and light.
RIP

" I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac." Actually it was a hula bobble in a big new truck, on Shell Rd. Also, on another truck in Jamestown, "Log it, graze it, or watch it burn."

Congratualtions! You now have absolutely NO TASTE at all because you destroyed a completely perfect, beautiful, iconic piece of machinery! Shame on you...

Just a Simple Life
Why I’m staying up way too late tonight
It’s way past midnight
I don’t know why
Too much on my mind
It’s just a simple life
But the world keeps baiting me
And I’ve gone
And let it get too complicated
For me
I’m thinking of all those many thoughts
Problems and mundane things
Nothing like a bird that sings
Flying high on the wing
It’s such a simple flight
But the wind keeps blowing me
And I’ve gone
And let it send me way off course
Again
I’ll be sleeping past daylight once more
Resting on an easy shore
But just you wait and see
I’ll be doing too many things
It’s such a simple task
Taking things leisurely
But I’ve been known
To let the world twist me up
Once more
Why I’ve stayed up past midnight again
Like it’s a cardinal sin
A tapping at these keys
But if you please
I’ve got those jazz riffs on my brain
And once again you know
If I’m lucky you see
The world won’t notice me
This time

Trippin' through eastern Madera County.
Began in Merced where we ran across this oldie.We drove up to North Fork to see a fella named "Charlie" about some sticky stuff.This old bucket was moldering away along the side of the road.Also along the way...This spot lies south of Mammoth Pools Rd about 2.5 miles. There is a sign. There is also a mobile home community right there. Can't miss it.Let me assure you that we achieved that "golden state" while here at the center of the Golden State!
The spot is located in the midst of a grow of yerba santa, or 'climber's weed.' The plants are kinda scraggly-looking, but it's normal this time of year.

And for amusement...
Flip or Flop?
I washed the flop from my flip-flops
So they only flip but sometimes slop
And now I call them my flip-flips
Like my two nostrils drip drip drip
Away away with my old flop-flops
They’re gone forever and I won’t shop
For another pair unless I slip
In this sloppy pair of old flip-flips

From Fungi to Farm Buy
Today I saw a golden orange
and brown upon the leaves of morn
I’d never noticed it before
such aura of it’s hue what’s more
The filtered sunlight that was stored
in detritus where insects forage
And mushrooms rising to discourage
my taste for one had I the courage
For lack of sense one might endure
the toxin for which there’s no cure
To leave this world all thoughts to purge
to a nauseating Scottish dirge

Perish the Snot, Scot
There was a snot part Pole part Scot
And every breed there in between
Welsh Irish English that you’ve seen
And Scandinavian as well
Part mad king Danish bent for hell
Like old Macbeth with his death knell
We’ve all to thank for our mixed breeds
Lest inbred Trumpster be your creed

As ive wanted to say too, nearly at each post.
to every picture of late, "Ive just seen that!", > >(No, No I Haven't)
well? maybe the deer, mainly
? and that was at ? some time a'for that? there was a lag
so O!
There is no way to follow that! BravoBushBRAVOman, ('scots got me thinking)
There, now the turkey fits on many levels
I really couldn't capture this scene, a whole brood 16 , 4 more adult, 1 Tom, and chicks. Little fur balls with sticks for necks heads & legs. the feathers stay with the birdthey cut through our yard, as it is wild, left un cut. That every other yard is a poisonous golf course like, close-cropped toxic desert. helps funnel all sorts of critters our way.
