Migration,
I'm taking my wooly words worth
and moving on home
Diggin the concrete, time to break my teeth
upon the ample edge of indifference
I'm sitting with my pretty self
in the Santa Cruz Diner
where I was told in so many words
"Hippies use side door"
Just ordered a Jack Kerouac,
side of fries
twenty five and some scratch in my pocket
Menu, it says "life is unpredictable,
eat dessert first"
and I do
i can remember when we really weren't welcome in many places, they called us freaks but we liked that and used it for ourselves. this is very good, but it reminded me of the sixties and made me feel old
With all of life's unpredictability, people will still be predictably stupid everywhere, when it comes to judge other people with just one look, yet proceed to ignore them almost immediately...
Your poetry is as outstanding as ever, and I'm very glad to read it again.
All the best,
