"honky" poems
IT'S a jazz affair, drum crashes and cornet razzes The trombone pony neighs and the tuba ******* snorts. The banjo tickles and titters too awful. The chippies talk about the funnies in the papers. The cartoonists weep in their beer. Ship riveters talk with their feet To the feet of floozies under the tables. A quartet of white hopes mourn with interspersed snickers: "I got the blues. I got the blues. I got the blues." And ... as we said earlier: The cartoonists weep in their beer.

***** Tonk in Cleveland, Ohio
My body steeps in this hot sarcophagus, Coated in fake butter topping. I watch trollops quaffing hoppy-scotch, Flipping wristwatches for moves to jump rope two-and-two. Like when I was 10, and I saw this ***** white trash can of a man, Fly out of a grocery store with a 40oz like he was Peter Pan. But I knew deep down, in my swashbuckling soul of souls, That Peter Pan got Wendy by being a gentleman. So this fever, that has my mobile phone not shaking in my pocket, I keep staring at every five seconds for you to call. Is just another moment in my life to cherish, because if we should be married, And I want to talk. I'll just need to walk down the hall.

The apartment hasn’t been cleaned for so long and has housed a depressive in it for the same length of time so that there is a glaze of slime-dirt on the floor, made of dried coffee, hot chocolate, maybe some **** or some spillage from a tube of steroid cream to treat an inflammation that never really goes. The rate of ooze changes?. Clean textiles are piled up on the floor, never having been folded, and mix here and there with ***** practical fatpants that make me look like a geologist and white-white cotton blankets that can be washed on HOT with lots of bleach that I purloined from some mentalhealthfacility. The inbox is full of—is bristling with—remonstrances from Programs for the Nondoer—you haven’t filed, haven’t turnstiled, haven’t had your hologram chip assessed by central CENTRAL intelligence, what is wrong with you. Upon stepping outside there is a beat during which I think maybe somewonder might swirl and buoy but no, just wethumid and ***** sidewalks cruddy and Haitians and quasi-Haitians muttering “taxitaxitaxi” in front of their Gypsy conveyances with their dubious certifications. I should go for a ride in one, a dubious passenger for a dubious palanquin. I tried the library but it was too hot and decrepit and too filled with Books For African-Americans, which always ****** me off; are only African-Americans going to read Wright or Douglass or Brooks? Everyone is overrated, anyway, movies and theater and the moribund beat of commerce, and as the dangerous autos pass, sometimes not running you over, you can see morechange in the pockets of the shareholders of BeePee and Iacocca Coach-Wirx. Any friendliness exhibited seems to contain an underovertone of You’re Not Included Whiteboy White ****** Ghost ***** all archaic names I’ve been almost astounded to be called usually while balancing on tiptoe on some lurching, roaring dieselbus, grinding past off-off-off brand groceries that do a dubious business. While making my police report I wink at a sevenyearold boy and I get a lustrous wink back butalas this is not enough to beat back those slurrycolored brainfazes.

Jonathan Anderson's collections walk a confounding tightrope between naïveté and decadence. Much of his new menswear looked like clothes for a futuristic, spiritual retreat (Anderson himself said he wanted something "laid-back, Zen-like"), but the buckled patent shoes were purest dancehall honky-tonk. The fitted leather jackets were pretty flashy, too, especially when contrasted with multi-pleated pants in plainest calico or denim. "He took himself seriously," said the voice-over that launched Michel Gaubert's stirring soundtrack (a journey all in itself), but that felt like Anderson poking a little fun at his own expense—or at least anticipating reactions to his quirky rationale. He insisted his collection was actually like an imaginary world that a child might create for himself, akin to the tree houses he and his brother used to build. The preciousness that such a boy would bestow on things that are essentially valueless was reflected in the ordinary objects—keys, tools—that were transmuted into jewelry, the board game that mutated into a constructivist jacquard, and the calico or denim artfully constructed into the pants that made up the foundation of the collection. Some of the models were carrying a small metal frame on which curious little things were suspended, almost like charms to ward off who knows what. That subtly occult tinge has become something of an Anderson signature, the way he disturbs the refined with the raw, for instance—a thin strand of bamboo or a bandage of calico nipping the waist, or a crude smear of paint across a tulle top so fine it is barely there, or even a white feather stuck to a shoulder. Such touches feel last-minute spontaneous, but also off-kilter, which is exactly where Anderson wants to keep us. But his work is now so consistent that off-kilter is proving a rather pleasant place to be.Read more here:www.marieaustralia.com/evening-dresses | www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses

You play the Cool Piper every Concert Noon Change your Clothes; And the Tempo changes you Why couldn't have I heard you Guys that soon So I could strangle the Technocrat blue? HA! I jest. Rarely do Gum-Humours speak But when they do they leave a Mark aside I guess this is no time to act so meek When Spain's Wild Brother calls us for a Ride And what a Ride! Many Blokes hitch a tug Collecting Hot Dames they only knew for yonks It's a Crazy Menu; But quite a hug Some choose a Bellow; Others a Honky-Tonk. Long Sonnet Short, your Music is the Boom Clean your Pipe well and hope to see you soon.

SONNET TRIBUTE: UNDER-A-BANNER
I’m on my way to San Antone Gonna cowboy up There’s a filly there I need to see Sure enough, we’ll build a fire Take in the Alamo Then we’ll dance at The Wagon Wheel The best honky-tonk I know I’ll be on my best behave The whole weekend through I met her through Cowboy Date The internet is cool This solo buckaroo Don’t intend to be single for long This is our fourth rendezvous I’m not usually wrong I got a new Stetson hat Took my spurs off There’s a spring in my gait I look like George Strait In my fresh-pressed cowboy shirt I even got some cologne on Now, that’s a first I could go on and on I told my Mom she’s the one I’ll tell my gal tonight We’ll ride off into the sunset together Assuming everything goes all right

Deck of Cards. The deck of cards tumbled, The wind cruelly snatched them from the gamblers hand, Twisted his hand, In an evil twist of fate, Stolen from the gambling man, Ripped the Waster off, All he ever had, All worldly possessions gone, His wife has given up, For he loves the queen of hearts instead, She teased him, Stole all his goods and chattels, In total disrespect, He has nothing left, Stole all his money all extracted with satin strings, Satisfied casino owners greed, It’s a racket, Greed is fed, While he feeds his money out, He’s always lusting more, Casino owner’s provocation bleeding those he caught in his deceitful web of promises, Down at the ***** tonk bar, Money does not go very far, Tragic victim goes off to the bank to score another score, For another jinxed fix, Lady luck never loves him back, Can’t look him in the eye, A soul of sorrow, Caught in a land of underground lies, Insulting his name, Crushing his honour, As he kisses his money goodbye, Yet again!

The Deck of Cards
Priest And Beast I live for today, not yesterday or tomorrow, I have no regrets or no sorrow. It's just the way I like living, I always forget, I'm always forgiving. I traded in my medication, now I just do some meditation. Nothing ever gets me depressed, all my sins, I have already confessed. Go to church every Sunday, God helped me find the way. I pray every single night, my future is so very bright. I exercise and I diet, hating noise, I love quiet. Every Sunday, I eat my wafer, after that, I feel much safer. As Stryper sang, To hell with the devil, back in the day, I was quite the rebel. Fooled you all, I'm really an atheist, no one is more of a racist. I hate all people, no matter the skin, I don't care if you're fat or thin. I pick on everyone, I leave no one out, I've walked up to people dressed like a girl scout. I really could care less what you all think, whether you're a jew, ***** ***** towel head, ***** or ***** If you think god is real, you're a fool, hard knox is where I went to school. Religion is nothing more than a joke, just bought me an eight ball of coke. When I step in church, my feet burn, if you're like me, you'll have to wait your turn. I'm atheist but I'm also a priest, I'm a beauty and a beast. Can you give me a hell yeah, cat got your tongue, then give me a meow. I hate you, you hate me, a mass suicide would set us free.

Play your cards right Put on a mask to hide Stacked deck I speak lies Fluently addictive I’m infected with the soul ***** tonk hip Broken record stuck on repeat Hit me. 21 bust Dealer’s choice. Counting cards. Gambling addiction One last chance to win at this lifestyle. House always wins. All in. Out of control. Runnin the table for brief seconds. It’s gone. Laid down everything on black. This is how I live. Just an honest man in a gambling world. Juggling priorities. Impulsive. Instinctive. Alive. Pop the bottles, Full throttle. Pedal to the metal. This ride doesn’t stop. Commit to it. Makin money, spending money. Just hoping to break even. Break the bank, crack the casino. We learned on the streets. How to play this game. Betting on games we know we can’t win. These lines will end you in bread lines. Doing it on the soul purpose of chance. Will you ever know this lifestyle? Seemingly scheming. Flipping cards to the end Royal flush. Trapped in casino bright lights. Just trying to find out what its all about. For better or worse, I’ve been changed. Lets **** this world up, Before it repays the favor. You’ve gone past gone to far In deep. I see possibility in failure. The best of both worlds. Collision course. Make a bet. Throwin’ down the table. Snakeeyes.

We blew into bars like we had nothing to lose. Disco ***** & ***** tonks, beach clubs or The Ritz, it didn’t matter, we were oblivious to the surrounding action. A brotherhood of unknowns, we were usually drunk, ready to strike anywhere, anytime, we could even drop in from the sky on command, sober. Like cobras, we had venom running through our veins, our hearts pure, but mess with us, heads would definitely roll. I was good with concussive-devices too. Once I threw one into a pit of vipers, heard it explode, saw the aftermath, so drinking in bars ain’t **** I love cheap perfume.

This head on a spike Well it's turning blue Talking 'bout why I'd like The splendor of his view "From up on high" he says to me "All thing under the sky are mine to see" And long and hard I sat and thought of things for me my body got and then I stood with my decree and hoped he'd make good company

She smells like summer And you sir smell like smoke She smells of butterscotch and raspberries You smell like a man who’s broke And can’t afford to shower too often You’re just a filthy ******* yes you But it’s ok when she gives you a light This beautiful cowgirl smokes too She hands you a Marlborough Red (Nothing But), and helps you understand Jack She’s stitches you up when life plays rough She’s straightening the crick in your back So you can walk upright again, Wow she says You are very brave Let’s go down to the town and fit you out Let’s go to Bradley’s Barber and get you a shave All warm and smooth, all lathery And a warm flannel on your face I’ll give you a buttery kiss on the lips If you’ll just pick up the pace Us cow girls are strong ya know We bail in the fields 9 til 3 But you’re a heavy thing Guess we ain’t as strong as we used to be But please don’t think that We’re all lipstick and gloss She begins to laugh softly We ain’t afraid to go into the moss And get our hands ***** No sir, it will never be that way As long as there’s a Bud at the end That will be the perfect sort of day Do I have a suitor? Hahaha oh you I think I scare them all out of town I just like riding in old pickups And watching the sun go down From mama’s veranda on the porch I will go honky-tonking all over town But as much as I like a game of pool I don’t need no man to hold me down I just liking living in nature And I like just living free And if a guy can’t take that Well that guy ain’t for me There’ s a lot I want to see There’s a lot I want to do And do I need to be tied down? No, said the old man, it’s true. There’s very few women left That think the way you do Oh stop it she says, your flattery It’s a nice try, but coffees are still on you.

So you did the ***** tonk and I did the shoulder shuffle driving down boulevards laughing and singing and trying to find our place in each others heads Little did we know that our words would slice your face always susceptible to the tone of my voice storming out of restaurants and smashing paintings of your lovers who were charming your clothes on the floor my boxers round your waist we'd find a common ground in our anger at the world and of each other It was and is a despicable love and I wouldn't trade it for the insincerity of comfort that so many others have We shall watch them all rot at their very cores passions drilled out of them as they seep into their settees while we wear rotten skin and shine from the core. That is the equity of love. and I will adore you for a very long time or until my mind dilapidates.

Matte grey metal rises and falls splashing gently in some blue open ocean. you can hear the ***** creaking, the stressing like old giant door hinges. A hundred feet up, crisp red flags are whipping, and down on the wooden deck a line of sailors salute the endless sheet of water.
