Stand Pat Drones swarm over the field. Beer bubbles waft upwards, to join them. Hot dogs slathered in mustard and relish. Oh, yes -- The game. Pats vs Rams What would make it even more interesting? Change the rules -- Football into Rugby. Can't be done? Ask the White House. * * * jrm 1 Feb 2019 |

Nancy in Wonderland Off with their heads! You're nothing but a deck of cards! I'm late, for an important date! Of walruses and kings. A fairy story, fit for a king. . . and all his followers. And the Joker? Let's applaud the Joker. Very important man. Yes, indeed. And, he even wears white makeup. Very becoming -- for a Joker. When will the real game begin? When the cards are dealt, once again. * * * jrm 8 Feb. 2019 |

I'm fine, Byron. I trust all is well, in Canada-land, with you. I visited Victoria, BC, and Butchart Gardens, a few times, back in the '60's, when living in Seattle. Wonderful experiences. |

Fantastique Nous sommes tous alignées Par une méthode cosmique, Qui me semble fantastique. La lune couvre le soleil, Qui me donne des frissons Dans les ténèbres du jour. J'agite la main pour Mars, Qui me salue de tout près, Avant de passer les lunes de Jupiter, Je vole un peu plus loin, Jusqu'a la frontière de l'univers. Des énergies inconnues touchent mon corps. De nouveau, j'ai des frissons, Dans la présence de l'espace-temps, Dans la présence de notre bon Dieu, Dans la présence des étoiles, Qui me donnent la direction Pour retourner chez moi. Je n'ai pas encore envie de retourner.. Je veux aller plus loin.. Mais le multivers garde les frontières Avec sa propre éternelle vie, Qui me semble fantastique. Je retourne chez moi, Ou je raconte l'histoire à mes amis. Ils sont fantastiques, mes amis. DJ'18 *track 2 on einzelgänger* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGwhnA9o8mI rOZZ Music Pictures |

Can I Come Along With You? Yes, you can. Any time you want. I accept you, and will never reject you. You will be my best coffee-mate, ever. * * * The true story behind this initial question, was profoundly sad. For another lady, however, in a similar situation, a happier ending was effected, as shown in the resolution, here. Such is life. . . jrm 5 Feb. 2019 |

Roll With Me As I roll down the highway, My thoughts leading astray, I find the peace, I'm looking for, In search for my heart, feeling so sore. Feel it with me, Roll with me, Up and down, Round and round. As I look through the clouds, The music not too loud, I see the piece of sky, I'm looking for, I don't need to see more. See it with me, Roll with me, Up and down, Round and round. I'm rolling on down the highway, My thoughts, leading astray, I find my heart, my sore heart, In search for some freedom, never apart. Find it with me, Roll with me, Up and down, Round and round. As I search for my life, I lost somewhere.. And to tell you the truth, life isn't fair.. Live it up! Roll with me! Up and down, Round and round. DJ'18 *track 12 on einzelgänger* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs_9FXFzdVs rOZZ Music Pictures |

Redemption Day The fields of joy Behind that period Of freedom and liberty, Are calling me into eternal grace. Redemption day is nigh, To free all souls, To free all minds. Oh redemption day, Redemption day. The cracks in time Are cracking my code, In front of that period Of freedom and liberty. They are calling me Into eternal grace. Redemption day is nigh, To free all souls, To free all minds. Oh redemption day, Redemption day. DJ'18 *track 13 on einzelgänger* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkTst4qafp0 rOZZ Music Pictures |

I Have To Get Used (to it) I have to get used. I have to get used To the busy bees around me. So down we go, Down in the black hole To another universe. His whole life, one is searching for the truth, And we still don't know it when we die. Building up a defence, Kinda like a brick wall. The elderyflowers by the water Shake their heads and think Of the sunshine and the fragrance of summer. I have to get used.. I have to get used To the busy bees around me. So diving into that hole, Searching for the truth, Knowing everything, even when we die. I have to get used to it. DJ'18 *track 5 on Einzelgänger* rOZZ Music Pictures |

Gasoline Sometimes my mega mega white truck Turns to red, and I want to rape my guitar, Ask Seasick, he knows. We all know, because sometimes my truck loses its gasoline on the lost highway. Then it has the color black. And I don't get my gasoline back, Gasoline man, if you know what I mean. Most of the times my truck is white, But not for long on this planet. It turns to red by sight of the so called 'übermensch', Who mock the Lord and who think they created earth And this f**ing universe, you f**ing imbeciles! And I don't even get my gasoline back.. They steal a bit more from me, As my truck is turning to the color black again. And I don't get my gasoline back, Gasoline man, if you know what I mean.

Thinking Things Through I have to give my friends Some time to think through. Thinking things through, Through Thy Threshold, Thriving a Thousand thoughts. My friends are lending me Some time to think things through. Through thickening thoughts, Through the thresholds, Thinking things through. Through the threat of ThinkingThings though, Thoroughly, thinking through Throbbing thieves of the thresholds, Thinking things through, Thousand thoughts, thinking ThroughThy thresholds. Thy thoughts, thrivingly theft. Thee Thred a trodden, troubled path.. Thinking the thoughts, twirling. Intertwinement Thinking thoughts through Thy troubled thoughs, thought.

The poem, "Bizarrity", was inspired by the book, "My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry", by Fredrik Backman. Bizarrity A light rain parts the fog and mist. I set my book aside. No raven taps upon the door, to quote its "..never more". A spooky scene, quite new, to me. Non-fiction, my forte. * A book-discussion book to read, to brave with added twist: Large Print remained on shelf, for me. I checked out book, reluctantly. * Up and down I trace the words, their meanings change, with glee. Or, has the plot, itself, that's changed . . . to add a twist, for me. * * * jim 10 March 2019 |

The Silent Night (i fall) In the silent night, The stars fall from the sky, They fall into my basket of love. As I fall into the darkness of night, The silent night, where stars fall from the sky And fall into my basket of love. As I fall into the brightness of day, The day of the silent night, As stars fall from the sky And fall into my basket of love. As I fall into a new black hole, On the day of the silent night And stars fall from the sky, They fall into my basket of love. As I fall into the brightness of a black hole, On the day of the silent night, The silent night, of stars that fall from the sky, Falling into my basket of love. As I fall into a new day, And into the silent night And stars fall from the sky And fall into my basket of love. I fall into a new day, On the silent night, Where stars fall from the sky, Falling into my basket of love..

You've woven musical baskets of love, Julie. Beautiful. I know a lady who weaves with yarn, but is done just with the sound of clicking needles. How lovely, each way. Thanks, for the perspective, Julie. |

Life Is Simple Life is simple When you look at the butterfly And the tiny lines Between the colors On its open wings. Life is simple When I look at you And your eyes, Deeper than the ocean blue. Yes, life is simple When I look at the sunshine And the birds flying high, Free as a bird In the sunshine.. Why life is simple, No one can tell, Not even the butterfly, Flying its wings to my eternal love, High in the sky, high with the butterfly. And I smile Because life is simple, Simple as your big blue eyes, The deepest of the ocean blues. Yes I smile Because life is simple. And I cry Because life is simple. Oh I fly Because life is simple. Life is simple. DJ'19 *track 10 on Einzelgänger* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fJAgNBRGc0 rOZZ Music Pictures |
