The muse of the wandering

Minstrel man

||||


The Minstrel Man



( And his hot

Boogie - Woogie

Babe )

::

We got somethings we gotta get done

& like

I gotta do em with you

So I guess we got some talking to do



( I'll go first //

Give me a second to tune the guitar )

"""""
"""
"

Soft indian song lingers like
Smoke rising

From the hills

Like they're trying to tell us something

"

Like

EVERYTHING IS TRYING TO TELL US

SOMETHING

LIKE

WHAT REALLY IS GOING ON

::

Gentle story teller  

Talking  so purely

Whatever IS the news

""

We are lost in the poison of the

Violent dawn

The violent moving

Of

Immature images

Thru

Undeveloped minds

""""

The nations rise alongside

The midnight sense of ugliness

Along polluted waterways

)(

And SHE was there !!!

::

( whoever she is )



Do you know her ?

She talks about you constantly
To everyone

::.


The song plays on

:::

My guitar seems more than simply out of tune

)(

It is I out of touch

With the moving tapestry

••

The tapestry that weaves

Each of us

Life unto life

//

The Minstrel Man

lies down beside his

Boogie - Woogie

Babe

;:

It's a simple Love Story

Like all Love Stories

::

We walk serenely

Along the polluted waterways

,

Listen to our hushed and secret conversations

::

Yeah

That is something

You could do


;;

Well

I guess I've had my say

Now it's your turn

And then comes the hot Boogie -Woogie Babe
