Mouse, what are you smoking?
Or have you simply stepped into an altered reality, where words have different meanings than they did when hummingbirds were not whales.
But it is a good, funny bit of silliness. I take it that it is a rhapsody on the theme of the Clint Eastwood thread?
It was a bit of amusement, for sure.

Straight answer Sunday usually follows Octopus Day, unless it's a Saturday.
Then you skip a day, add eight and that's the date in the month it falls on.

have to pay the penance and explain what draws you in .
The very definition of those threads is what can only be described
as a circle jerk. I'm not saying I have not read along, and been disturbed enough
Agitated even ,but not to the point that I feel the need to post more dribble there.
I try to leave it there as well.
the topics, the way some double down on stupid, even those with daughters and wives!! .
the evidence of the carnage that our lack of a solid educational system that allowed entertainment to guide society. .,.

I've taken down a willow that was happily growing into & compromising a septic system.
I was hard pressed to do so, it was the craziest tree I ever fell.
The thing ate chain saw blades and chains alike.
Then I learned the joy of a very sharp saw.
But that treatment of my request is magical thnx
The mass insanity you all fail to grasp is that brother mouse is right on
words must twist and send ones mind reeling across the universe.
For your mention ff of Rhapsody I'll give you a choice of two
"Bohemian" Or "When I Paint My Masterpiece"

I've got to say that I'm sorry to say what I've said publicly.
but Cosmic is in a bad way and I want it known he needs
and I'm only trying to shout it out !
Email sent that reiterates and shadows what the mighty Tree striker said
Many of them docs resist
lower back surgery, due to un-predictable results.
I'm all but out of ' juice' here 26% the painter paints and yours truly is banished from the desktop.
I can only posy up what's already been deposited in the picture album previously.

You realize that botany and ornithology are not two of my strongest subjects.
These happen to remind me of vertebrae.

On a day when anything can happen...
Fluorescent Paisley Coyotes under the Moon
There in Dogtown
Barked a lonely Coyote
Short on sleep
And high on peyote
She slaked her thirst
On a leftover beer
And ate of some pizza
From a box that was near
Where some climbers slept
Off a drunken debauch
With their table still littered
By their evenings launch
To another dimension
Where they'd swooped and soared
But now they lie sleeping
And loudly snored
And the coyote sneered
At their indiscretion
Though couldn't complain of
The psychotropic selection
And the pizza with shrooms
Psilocybin the type
Combined with mescaline
Left the brain moist and ripe
For unusual visions
And delusional forms
Of an identity crisis
Beyond all the norms
Was the coyote the dreamer
Or only the dream?
Was her mind just the sound
Of the howl or the scream?
So she tried out her voice
At the top of her scale
While she stood on the table
And let loose a wail
And the rattling vibration
Made the crescent moon shift
Spilling out some stars
Down into the drift
Which bounced off the heads
The the startled young men
Who had leaped from their tents
And into the din
Where a paisley coyote
Of fluorescent on wing
Hovered over their heads
And proceeded to sing
Their site it was empty
When their friends came to peak
At the last night's commotion
'Twas the loudest all week
And a search was begun
Through the rocks and beyond
For the partying climbers
Who'd gone missing that dawn...
They found them all huddled
Under Joshua Trees
All shivering and frightened
Picking quills from their knees
Where they'd run through the darkness
With sheer terror and fright
From a flying coyote
In the cold desert night

Kumbayah
We used to sing Kumbayah
Around the fire
And campfire songs
In Idyllwild
A Christian camp
My parents worked
As counselors
My brother first saw
Old Tahquitz Rock
High on mountain side
As years went by
We worked there too
The garbage detail
Tobin had
I washed more dishes then
Than I ever imagined
But I never imagined
One day the climb would come
I was too young
And out of shape
So I just carried the rope up
While Tobin and friend
Climbed the left ski track
Tobin led his first route
The other guy
Grunted and flailed on top rope
I carried the rope back
Terrified
The years passed
My brother's legacy
Culminated
Fulfilling the prophecy
In a weird way
My earliest memory
A first dream
On passage back from
Overseas
Where Tobin first saw
The mighty alps
How could I know...
How could I know?
Such irony
As a sailors caps flew off the deck
So go our dreams
It's all we have
Who we love
Who we care about
Never aloof
Permanently
We're made to see
