I never really wanted to have an agent Just one day I met this lady and she starting arranging my gigs and stuff She gave me this kelly green handkerchief and told me to wear it in my left back pocket at all times I have followed her orders religiously and now own more laser discs than all my friends combined Do you know where the Trinidadian bakery is? I'm supposed to meet the paperboy there and give him this pencil case May the black cats of January be afraid to cross your path

Godfather Slice And A Medium Coke To Go
Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary *This ilke Monk leet olde thynges pace, And heeld after the newe world the space.* Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales How out of date are simple wooden beads An upgrade is what the Rosary needs! Something to give your meditations spice Connected to your electronic device Beamed back and forth to The Cloud, you see With mega-mega gigs of memory Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary is just the thing! The Ave Maria is so out of date It’s Ave ME now, ‘cause we’re all so great! Make your prayers less about God, more about you Signal yourself through sacred Tooth of Blue A camera hidden in the crucifix Enables you to take your selfie-flicks The Pater beads count each joggery mile Or kilometres if those are your style The Ave beads are recycled with care To save the forests, the rivers, and air Designed in Germany, made in China High-definition beads; there’s nothing finer Buy the first (as advertised on tv) And we’ll send you a second all for free Remember: for weddings, funerals, and daily devotions Let RAM and ROM go through all the motions Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary – O make it sing!

Doctor Ponsonby's Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary
If society was a person it would be a girl with perfect hair. If society was a person it would be a burden too heavy to bear. I society was a person, it would have rotten insides. If society was a person, it would be a Rottweiler or a runaway bride. If society was a person, it would be a student and ideas it would seek. If society was a person, it would be as sharp as a mountains peak. If society was a person, it would smell like sweatshirts and gigs. If society was a person, it would hide behind colourful wigs. If society was a person, consider it suicidal. If society was a person, its acts would all be genocidal. Society is a thing, heinous but misunderstood, Society is ruined, like the embers of burnt wood. We broke it Not bothered to fix it Want to know it Want to change it Go and understand it Change it Break it Make it But I’m just a writer, What should I know about it?

If Society Was A Person
Washing, ironing, cooking, cleaning The work is never done! Lunching, shopping, relaxing, reading I’ve heard is much more fun. Sweeping, mopping, dusting, shining Who thinks up all these gigs? But what I really want to know right now Is who left open the barn door to let in the pigs? Mowing, weeding, trimming, seeding Are mans work, but I’m all on my own I gave birth to a virtual army But housework is their No Go Zone! Yelling, screaming, crying, keening Achieves naught but my puffy face I’ve given up such futile exercises That puts no one in their place. I hear “Can you help me please” They hear “Blah Blah Blah” Maybe I need to learn sign language One gesture can go so far! To this end I have ultimately decided And I really do think this is for the best To sit right down with drink in hand and Let the little piggies wallow in their own mess! 24/07/2010

Hell on Earth (is Housework)
Thinking that maybe there is music on planets other than our own With different tones that we just can’t seem to hone And instruments like triple necked trombones made of recycled robotic bones Rockstar aliens playing in bands and doing gigs on planets in neighbouring zones A gigantic galactic space tour to call their own and silver and chrome skyscraper cities to rock and roam

Interstellar Spacetour
The Super Heroes of Rock! There’s a little person named Gem, with a banjo in his hands; But he’s too drunk to play. There’s a guy with one arm and he’s slamming the drums And I think his name is Dave. Jenny plays the Bass, with a rash on her face And she’s going to die today. The lead guitarist (Jimmy) has no legs, But he always tries his best. But his lack of fingers and thumbs, Is starting to become a pain And the fact I can’t sing! Well it doesn’t mean a thing, Because we’re not even getting paid to play. No we’re not, getting paid to play. Because we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we came to save the day. Yeah we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we came to save the day. When Kurt decided today was the day And put a bullet hole in place of his face, They called the Super Heroes of Rock! To come and save the day. And when Black Sabbath crashed the plane And Axl cancelled the show again. They called the Super Heroes of Rock! To come and save the day. The little person, Gem, he used to sing, But a girl named Lisa broke his banjo string, So now he simply comes to our shows And joins us up on the stage. He used to be the ladies favorite, But now he’s lost all of his confidence. Because he hit the bottle hard And he hasn’t been the same since. But we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve come to save the day. We’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve come to save the day. And if there’s nothing else I can say, I guess we’ll just rock the show our way. Because we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we came to save the day. And ladies there’s no need to fight; Just come and form an orderly line. Then come and be the bands groupies; With us back stage. And the fact that I can’t sing! Well that doesn’t change a thing. Because we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we do this voluntarily, anyway. We jump into empty gigs slots, When a band’s singer has lost the plot. We’re the rehab missionaries And we don’t get paid to play. Because we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve come to save the day. Yeah we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we came to save the day. And if our music isn’t your thing; Well we already know we stink. But we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we only came to save the day. Could you give us back Jimmy’s false legs? He only wanted to try and crowd surf. Things are already bad enough for him, What with the leprosy and he’s just lost his girl And I think Jenny has died, I can see Dave’s put a drumstick in his eye. But we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve come to save the day. Yeah we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve only come to save the day. Yeah we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And our music will never be stopped. Because we’re the Super Heroes of Rock! And we’ve only came to save the day. (C)2011 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.

When you're a writer, you get invited to strange gigs sometimes, where usually, the audience is arty farty or even a bit precious and pretentious. You know, the blue rinse set. But I was once invited to recite poetry in a bar, where I knew my audience might be ****** or maybe even abusive, and wouldn't give a **** about writing. Yeah? Well, I'm a bit of a word warrior, really, so I didn't back off. I stepped right in for the fight. I said straight up that my poem was especially for people like them who thought that writers are wishy-washy, woffling, **** weak and luke-warm. So then I said, PPPHHHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrtttttttt. Very loud. I told them this was some royal raspberry, just for people like them, who thought this was going to be another boring poem. And then I threw in a few words like, ah, **** doggy fashion, finger up the **** you know, just to liven things up. I told them what I really thought. ***** You! Especially seeing as how you think poetry’s some wimpy, bleeding heart, limp **** stuff. Right? So let's get right down and ***** here. Which is much more interesting, eh? And do you know what that says about you? No?  You bleeding, blinkered, blind-as-bats broomstick-up-the-arsed, boring, bonehead ******** So don't call this poet piss-weak any more or I'll hit you bang between the eyes and up between your thighs. I've got some things to say you'd better not ignore. When it comes to words, I'm a gouger and a biter. I'm a brawling, hard-as-nails, no-holds-barred street fighter. I'm a writer. Yeah, well, no surprise here. That made them quieter. I'd shut them up. So what did that prove? I'd just abused and confused them. It made me think, well, why did I bother? Poems are for believers and lovers, aren’t they? They don't need me to fight for them in bars. Poems just are. Yes,and some of them might live as long as the stars. Mike T Minehan

Imagine the outrage If a band, all-male members, Refuse to play tunes for the opposite gender. Imagine the uproar The venue would face For excluding a half of their customer base. “It’s rank discrimination!” The ladies would moan. If the males got to listen while the girls stayed at home. Yet the Bulletproof Stockings, That band that wears wigs, Exclude guys from their concerts Not just chauvinist pigs. “It’s a matter of Faith!” The girl band members say; No guys at their gigs! No men hear them play. Yet I’ve heard pious Pastry chefs Don’t get to choose. If gay brides want a cake It’s a crime to refuse. An Orthodox authoress who published a tome would be most put out if male buyers stayed home. So if girl musicians seek public expression They ought to think twice about gender oppression. Its great that they’re keeping an orthodox home. But enough of these concerts For women alone.

Down with the Bulletproof Stockings!
The only reason I ever went downtown was for music class or orchestra gigs or for LA Phil concerts, but I found this cool bookstore once. I walked around with you once during a break between rehearsals and you asked me if I thought anyone actually lived here "LA's just a movie set," you said. I was downtown for an audition once and they were filming Batman. There was fake snow everywhere and you told me that you and a friend pretended to have a snowball fight. Imagine. A snowball fight in Los Angeles. Impossible. Except when Los Angeles is Gotham or New York or Chicago for the day. No one is ever on the streets in LA. Unless LA is Gotham or New York or Chicago for the day.

Los Angeles - Snapshots
Parents would prefer kids stay away from these three jobs, cause as they'd say *There's no way to make any money. At least you can sell paintings with art or hock a few bucks with albums from your music.* No parents encourage children into any of these gigs, especially prophecy. Today, a kid would be fed pills for breakfast if they expressed any interest in becoming the next Jesus or Buddha. Suppose Moses decided to go try an open mic comedy night instead trading his commandments for a set list but I bet his adopted parents would have lectured him just the same. At least Moses would have gotten a few laughs. The job descriptions are strikingly similar, just like the outcome a 50% chance the audience will applaud and chant or watch you in heavy, maudlin silence... sweating nervously struggling to maintain a sane face while raucous thoughts of loathing and doubt chew then spit out pieces of heart and soul forcing a confrontation of an emasculated existence for five to seven minute while.... whoa, hi, sorry. Must've been having a flashback for a few seconds, forgive me. There is a difference though, in the mindset of this trio. A poet knows they're crazy, a comic ponders if they're nuts while a prophet thinks everyone else is just cuckoo. I can see why parents don't want you to go near these three jobs, problem being, it's more of a calling than a culling, and once it's answered, all I can say is, well... good luck..... have fun.

there are vanilla scented candles and plaid scarves, acrylic paints of every ******* colour and wool socks, a closet full of pretty dresses and a bookshelf full of good reads but I’m not happy there is laughing there is smiling there is feeling good sometimes but I’m so unsatisfied with what I’ve got though I seem to have just about everything I have a good mother I have friends that care I have blankets I have good teeth I have rubber boots some people say I have nice legs I have compassion I have the drive to create I have trees I have long hair some people say I have kindness I have a bus pass I have a new job I have flexibility I have enough money some people say I have talent but I’m unappreciative and hard on myself still there are booked gigs and improv shows, interesting conversations and instruments, trees and leaves and twigs and pinecones, the sky, the zoo, the cafes but I get insecure most of the time there are long hot baths and biting nails, then painting nails, then repainting nails and biding time, then hating time, then being okay with time, there are long stares in the mirror sometimes glares sometimes there are puffy eyes there is frustration in my fingers in my head in my voice at the piano on stage being vulnerable in a crowd of cool actors and musicians fear of being seen fear of being unseen fear of doing it WRONG fear of looking stupid looking ugly looking pathetic sounding stupid sounding ugly sounding pathetic there are dreams of leaving this city this head these people I have known for what seems like forever there are dreams of healing and loving my skin and the natural amount of fat that is underneath it there are dreams out there there are so many of them that I’m afraid to wish that I’m afraid to think of from caution of them not happening from caution of disappointment and loneliness and neediness, then purposelessness there is wanting and wanting and wanting something better I don’t know what just something better but waiting and waiting and waiting for it to come to me instead of trying and going and getting it myself

Azzurro The boots were blue in colour Painted to look like the sky And worn by a gal with other things She was aged 18 to 45 And looked timless ageless It was the blue painted ex army boots That she used wore to gigs Pubs and clubs when she was free Not working as a programmer In the Italian civilian aviation industry The job was boring but paid well She'd done it for 8 years Was a legend at the plane factory The lady who wore her blue boots Even in the office a different pair She got results delivered the goods Had worked on 36 different projects They simply knew her as Azzurro The blue booted gal

Just outside Toronto, we'll work coffee shops and gigs and make this what we want to. No longer do I hide behind apathy and equations that make no sense. Here and now I have you after I've waited so long to make you mine. Our adventures across the lands searching for ethnic flavours will forever dance throughout my brain. Your arms wrapped around my waist and your kisses on my lips will help bury my demons. Your illnesses will fade away so much quicker than before. Now I'm here playing with the puzzle called your heart in the conscious effort to put you together as you should be because someone foolishly played the gambler and felt your heart was worth the bet. Once you claimed you were upset not suicidal but still I worried. My heart was in your hands and the melancholy thought of losing you made minimal scars reopen. Now, just outside Toronto we work coffee shops and gigs, making it what we want to. With the things we always dreamed to have and the love that no one else will ever understand. We'll be bitter together, burn the world together as once we decided we would because the thought once was so intoxicating that we became lustful for it, and made the choice to create what we wanted, in Toronto, working coffee shops and gigs.

Here's To You
And he's provocative, a provocateur, a beacon of free speech and foul speech and vague speech and pointed speech, pacing the Conference Room Alamo on the ground floor of the Hilton, testing his lapel mike, asking the crowd of eighty, ninety to move to the front rows, and he mouths something to the photographer, a dreadlock'd skin and bones white boy, and the photographer flanks the crowd, angling the shot to solidify the intended narrative: he is a provocateur, a popular provocateur, a staunch opponent of political correctness (which this bystander must note strangely equates to a champion of hate speech), a former poster child for the alt-right, but—and quoting here—he says, "I cannot be pigeonholed," and perhaps that's it, the secret to his former success, his viral, shapeless nature, a terrorist of language and persona, and perhaps that's it, the secret to his demise, his shape forming, his identity emerging from the podcast ghettos and GOP speaking gigs, and he's on the stage and he's in all white and this is intentional, this is the redemption tour, the other-side tour, and the crowd claps now as he pumps his arms (at this point in the presentation they used to shout, I should point out), and he calls Hillary Clinton "Satan's ingrown **** hair," and the men in the audience laugh and pant and cough, and he spends fifteen minutes on fake news and hit pieces and the nuance of video editing and how liberal snowflakes won't stop protesting his appearances (for clarity here, there were no protestors at this event), and he wraps everything rather quickly (especially for the $150 ticket price) and says he has a minute for questions, and a young man, twenty-five or so, asks for tips on becoming the God King of Internet Trolls, and he, the popular provocateur, says, "Ah. The next generation is coming up from behind."

My work site is climate controlled, No Pigeons threaten my peace. Of all of my gigs, this one is the best, no acid rain scours my cheeks. Yes, it is boring at times; stuck in the Louvre, night and day, but, as I’m a creature of Marble, I cannot run outside and play. Instead I’ve become an observer of the tourists who whisper and gawk. That girl with nice ***** is from Paris, that fat little guys’ from New Yawk. I pose for their pictures for free as they snap up some memories for home. My maker, long dead, was the master who painted those frescoes in Rome. Its hard to believe that the heirs of the Renaissance men of my time have gotten so fat and complacent, gorging on fast food and cheap wine. pig like are their fat chubby faces. They prate like some fatuous child. They are, compared to their forebears, like butterball turkeys to wild.

It's the silence that always gets you. The laughter is a drug and there is no worse a addict than the comedian Behind the laughter is the insecure person you never see . It's the empty rooms the miles between gigs it  always comes to that next fix. Those few seconds when I can  be  everything I'm not the escape is the best release there has ever been. And as you leave it behind the ego deflates and the isolation sets in were all children in tattered shells called adults . So fragile the rock that seldom does embrace the sea . Were all ****** up in are own separate ways. Behind the laugh at times is the worst place you may ever realize you want to be.

Behind The Laugh
Would you smile Would you speak Would you look Would you think twice if she wasn't there Would you smile Would you show me love Would you have lifted your hand Would you have thrown me Would you love me Would you care Would you take a second thought Would you want me If she was gone Would you come back Could I forgive The abuse The hurt The bruises The memories I watch you Fight the hurt Fight the heartache Fight the depression Yet you stayed While she pushed us away Now your a stranger You won't even look Won't even smile I just want my dad The man I looked upto The dad I loved Adored Treasured The memories They won't fade even if I try The gigs The laughs Should i forget Will you ever come back Or should I feel Deserted Alone

once upon one time I had finery I had Pac Man and a Ps2 I had a computer fast as lightning that downloaded all the latest games played them without a pause and a silk robe to lounge around in a virtual girlfriend, an I phone that all my friends drooled over , Fifty Gigs of internet Wifi connectivity and  no need for a job, then my wifi and phone and Rent-a-Center sent me bills, and even Fingerhut cut me off. Now I am working at Mc D's.

Look, there goes the Alley cat Hear her strangled meowing It don't beguile, for it is vile Much like a sewer flowing Ladies of the evening Women of the street Would blush and be embarrassed To hear such trick or treat! I'm upset, cuz I don't get How that foul mouth can EAT! But there's a strange compulsion Which comes like a deluge Her smiles gay, but don't defray The *Battle of the BULGE* Like felines she vocalizes, Is her life like that? If she's raw, and long of claw, Is she like a cat? How far will she let you? How far will she GO? Perhaps she battles demons No-one else can KNOW Myself, I can't condemn her She had substance abuse But she's not free, cuz she can't see That SCINO'S not the TRUTH! And she's a Public Figure! Little girls look up to her! She doesn't seem to know this Did it not occur? She cusses like longshoremen Refuses to see That she's made a grave mistake In Scientology.

A Poem for KIRSTIE ALLEY
Look, there goes the Alley cat Hear her strangled meowing It don't beguile, for it is vile Much like a sewer flowing Ladies of the evening Women of the street Would blush and be embarrassed To hear such trick or treat! I'm upset, cuz I don't get How that foul mouth can EAT! But there's a strange compulsion Which comes like a deluge Her smiles gay, but don't defray The *Battle of the BULGE* Like felines she vocalizes, Is her life like that? If she's raw, and long of claw, Is she like a cat? How far will she let you? How far will she GO? Perhaps she battles demons No-one else can KNOW Myself, I can't condemn her She had substance abuse But she's not free, cuz she can't see That SCINO'S not the TRUTH! And she's a Public Figure! Little girls look up to her! She doesn't seem to know this Did it not occur? She cusses like longshoremen Refuses to see That she's made a grave mistake In Scientology. Does she believe they're helping? This Science of the Mind? Lord above! If she does Then she's completely BLIND! You're responsible, my lady. Do you know that you teach? The modern young, and they *become The little slaves you PREACH!* Miscavige isn't awesome Scientology's *NOT "COOL".* It's wicked beyond belief! You're being *played the FOOL!* Whatcha gonna do, girl? You're an ingenue no more. Do you doubt? *Gigs DO RUN OUT* Will you play the ***** "Ah, NO!" You may be thinking From my stance I shant tumult! A cow, I'll graze, I'll be unfazed! There's always the CULT! But, dear, a storm's a'brewin A tsunami of *greatsize* They pamper you and praise you But it's a *web of LIES!* What will you do when flooded? Will you weep and cower? David's boat won't stay afloat! It ain't no IVORY TOWER! Baby, don't you get it? Or are you just that THICK? You will die, and then you'll FRY A moth unto a WICK. God has a sense of humor Yep. He surely DOES!

"It's good to have a schedule, 'cause then you'll have at least pseudo-legitimate excuses not to do things you want to do even less than what's scheduled. It can also be nice to have a regular rhythm in Life other than your heartbeat and breathing, which, if you're like me, go overlooked enough as it is." "If I need more rhythm in my life, I play drums." "You fancy yourself a percussionist too, eh? Well, for a fellow clock, you're pretty **** sharp! What the hell you talkin' to me for? You got it already." "Just finish tuning that guitar already. 'Open Z minor,' right?" "It's 'drop go-fuck-yourself,' actually. Your mom's favorite." "Funny, your mom loves it when I bang with my eyes closed." "Alright, both of you: shut it before I leave both of your moms beggin' for more. After last time, they sure as **** know we bassists go deeper." "As the frontman and vocalist, all I have to say is that worthy ladies appreciate the guys who are confident and good with their mouths, so y'alls gotta be sure to get in on those backup vocals! Also, before I forget: please ask your moms about my Funkadelic records. When things have gotten a little too freaky, I tend to be in a hurry. Whips, latex, chains, ******* ball-gags, belts, oils, sandpaper, rubbing alcohol, vinyl, blowtorches, candles, wine.. you know how it is: it can be hard to remember everything you leave in the locker at the end of a long day at the gym!" "Hah, I'm sure. But, like I was saying.. we need to schedule more gigs." "I already scheduled some more with your m-" "I know. She told me."

Give me your word That I may push the world Beyond the the sword. Tbe silence is silent And voice of silence Breaking the iron gate of terror Shakings coming with earthquake In bangs and gigs and bloom With roarings of silence Then dead comes to death And life lives to live As the world awakes in silence!
