Beached

[johnnysaturn]

can’t nix
your spoor
ever
beats me
I occupied
the forefront
of your mind
but could not
lever past it
meantime you hurtle
endlessly immaculately
between wistful Dadaists
and pious Agony Aunts
(oh how they love
to hear you squeal)
it’s only in the striking
of the spark
that you catch fire

[alfredo]

Johnny ..Cool and crips ..........I like it

I really like the sound coming from this combination of words, John.

Like the poem, too.

that need for that spark is fascinating, an almost Pavlovian, God-cortexed response system learned over a family's lifetime, always carefully taught, and passed down to the next intrepid generation----great truth, great genes, great poem...
