She never went off
half-cocked. . .
Nor performed tasks in a
half-assed
fashion. . .
yes, she was
all woman
that one,
though she could be
a boob,
now and again.

relation-ships
are no regatta
such parades
require lotta
boats on bays
I reference
–not a–
mob
but
dates,
in this sonata…
a ship of 2
say—me & you
exchanging
duties
thru & thru
no captain
serf
just 1 big crew
no warring
wor-ship
equal sloops
–since ships
that don’t keep balance right
will bumper bergs that hide in night
and likely sink
twixt
black
&
white.

Oh, to log on
Sugar Mountain
with Big Brother, and the bullsh*t balloons
you’ll see plenty on Sugar Mountain
though you’re really just a Zombie in a room…
It’s so crowded in the stream
with all these effin’ memes
and the Doss PC you had
ain’t looking all that bad…
Oh, to log on
Sugar Mountain
with Big Brother, and his web tracking goons
you’ll read plenty on Sugar Mountain
breaking news which is by the large untrue
There’s a URL to click
where the news posts make you sick
You can read the words they wrote
like transcribed clearing throat
Oh, to log on
Sugar Mountain
with Big Brother, and the other networks
you’ll post plenty on Sugar Mountain
sharing links and likes in endless circle jerk
Now, you’re underdog at blog
because you’re not a cog
you shun blog post awards
they read and write so bored
Oh, to log on
Sugar Mountain
with Big Brother, and his international database
you’ll post plenty on Sugar Mountain
like the rest of the Pavlovian rat race.
Now, you need new cyber home
because you’re not a drone
ain’t it funny how delete
gives you Happy Feet…
Oh, to log on

There’s degrees of
songs & singers–
so much, I’ll make a list,
when we’re through
let’s both review
& see what I have missed.
There are those that need
~enhancement~
* auto-tune *
& helping hands,
there are those that
bleed song writers
back-up singers
& their band,
there are those that
feed on scandal
freaky clothes
to scream I’m glam,
& those with
stupid handles
geeky pose
& marriage plans
there are those who
make good money
putting Phony
next to Gram
and those that
belt out covers
of another
band with fans…
But sometimes
there are singers
–be it fella, be it dam–
who sing it acapella
And to them
I give this hand.
Since like a writer
~writing~
acapella is pure voice
no falderal
to song at all
but words!
(My tune of choice)
