American by Birth, Deadhead by Choice...

Poem Artwork

A hundred & fifty concerts,

Followed Jerry & the dead,

Peace, love & music to feed my head,

Occasionally the ground for my bed…J

 

Jerry Garcia should be president,

Even dead a better job he could do,

From a distance he could run the country,

Even being of heaven a resident…J

 

Rode in buses that stank of weed,

Cars held together with tape & wire,

Bogged down many a time in mire,

For us, the Grateful Dead was our creed…J

Gerry Garcia, was indeed one of a kind, he and his fellow band mates enjoyed life until their heart bleeds. Hey Ed, I am a fan and written wonderfully.

entertaining funny stuff Ed, the greatful read, by the way your graffics is cool, this is the same way some people change that quick, one second they your friend, the next second they're not, don't fret the racism, you're an ok guy regardless, a funny sense of humor one at that
