Nobody Knows Nobody knows Who we are, Where we're going to, What we're doing here And why.. We have to go.. We have to go And change our way of life. We have to be like the Angels In everything we do, In everything we think. We have to live in peace.. We are like a brick wall They keep on crashing Their heads onto. If they go, You go, We go. If they go.. DJ'17 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSy086Dz8Pk rOZZ Music Pictures |

For another dear lady . . . My Boundaries What are the boundaries of this sea? I seek the distant shore. Created In my memory, I hear no breakers' roar. A steady breeze to fill my sails, is all I ask of you. To speed me to my destiny, with sky, forever blue. But, dreams I have, including you, might have a darkened cloud? No wind can come from crystal sky, nor whisper, from a crowd. The boundaries I seek, you say, are just within . . . to form, your way. * * * jrm 16 Jan. 2018 |

Man Is Five Right.. Stuck right in front of you, Left .. For no reason. Both sides are happy.. And if that's the price.. I'll be happy to take it. And I ain't not falling in love With you, baby. I can't wait any longer.. If you believe in something good, It can happen today.. Earth is like outer space, Where I came from.. If you believe in something good, It can happen today.. We'd never have the chance again. No sign of contact, Now our hearts are Lost forever.. And now I'm talking sweet 'bout nothin'. I'll take the bus to your heart, baby And God will be closeby.. If you go, I would surely die, Right.. For no reason. The picture of you Left.. In the darkest corners Of my room. As freedom blows, Our minds succeed Into the non-existing Corners of our Multiverse. All sides are happy.. And I ain't not falling in love With you, baby. Some songs from above, Some songs from below.. I've had enough of this ruckus..

Wallpaper People Wallpaper people in driverless cars, twittering nonsense that doesn't go far. TV in sports bars, sans captions, of course. Can't be distracted by show-boat discourse. Sportscasts are truthful, as people demand. All else discounted, as being too bland. Driverless people. Sans captions, of course. * * * jrm 25 Jan. 2018 |

Shadows and Light Shadows and light -- L. da Vinci's prescription for depth. And, that's what most people strive for -- depth. But, many don't want the shadows. Just life, lite. * * * jrm 29 Jan 2018 |

A song about our very own Rocky's Cafe, still working on the arrangements and the music.. The song will be on my 8th album, which will be recorded the end of April. ROCKY's CAFE Went into Rocky's today, With the two Bobcats. We had a beer by the fireplace. The sun shone today, Everybody seemed happy. I ask Mike for the usual, The usual is coming up, he says. Yeah the place to be, Friends to meet, Good stuff to eat. Everybody's got a seat In Rocky's Cafe. Right, said Bob, Bob and I, we'll have The usual as well. Coming up, says Mike. You kinda have an empty look On your face there, Bob. Is that right, Bob? I was trying to catch your eye, I couldn't find it.. Yeah the place to be, Friends to meet, Good stuff to eat. Everybody's got a seat In Rocky's Cafe. Rocky's has them Bobcats, you know, And them Koala bears, always right on time With your drink, especially that #7. Yeah the place to be, Friends to meet, Good stuff to eat. Everybody's got a seat In Rocky's Cafe. I wave at Annie by the window, Her son is doing much better. Long time we've seen Uli, She lives in the States, The United ones of America. Yeah the place to be, Friends to meet, Good stuff to eat. Everybody's got a seat In Rocky's Cafe. Hey Bob, you're from California, right? Have you heard from Uli? Yeah, I talked to her on the phone yesterday.. Yeah the place to be, Friends to meet, Good stuff to eat. Everybody's got a seat In Rocky's Cafe. DJ'18 rOZZ Music Pictures |

Very nice Julie accept Koalas aren't bears. They are marsupials and their closest living relatives are Wombats. :-) |

Be Baby Be Going on up that road, Where trouble finds its peace. Where the rainbow tells you, The colours of everything that be. Be Baby Be Be Baby Be Is what the road is telling you. Going up, washing all the troubles away, Up below and down above. Rolling up and down, round and round, Into the wheel, the circle of life. That's what I'm telling you, What the rainbow tells you, What the stars tell you. The colours of everything that be. Be Baby Be Be Baby Be Be my Baby Oh Be And go on, up that road, Where trouble finds its peace, Is what the rainbow is telling you, What the stars are telling you, I'm telling you. Be Baby Be Be Baby Be The colours of everything will be. My Baby will be. Be Baby Be Be Baby Be Baby Be Baby Be DJ'17 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWQcVREpSe4 rOZZ Music Pictures |

Hockey fans' anguish . . . plus some memories, thrown in, for good measure -- Road-Side Humor I sat me down, as did, you, too. The sofa, worn, the Bruins, too. But, hands, we held, to keep me warm -- and hoped the Bruins returned to form. BURMA SHAVE * * * jm 16 March 2918 |

Triple 777 Alright, let's do it... On the triple 777. Take a sip from my special wine, On the double A, Thinking Triple 777. The capo slides to the fifth fret And the tones fly high To the Triple 777. They dream it, They do it, They do the sound, Flying high up Venus' Illusionary mirages Of colonized monopolies. On the double A, Thinking Triple 777. We dream it We do it Alright..... alright On the triple 777.... On the Triple 777 Take five out of the Book Of Love, Take five and Be Love, On the triple 777, Alright, let's do it... Wohow wow wow On the double A, Thinking Triple 777. I dream it I do it On the Triple 777. DJ'17 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cM2v-9r22fE rOZZ Music Pictures |

My Friend The wind was rolling Down the clouds. A breeze left behind A blessed mind. To the stranger in the street, I find my friend in need. His hat covered his eyes, Kept away from sight. The bird in the sky Found his friend indeed. The wind was rolling Down the riverbank. The water reflected The stranger's sight. He told me everything was alright But the wind told me otherwise. The story was well-known In each Joe, Love had grown. The breeze left behind A desert angel. To the stranger in the sky, I found my friend indeed. In the eye of the beholder, The stranger in the street. And the wind kept on rolling Down his eyes, Where it hit the street, With all its might. He was the new grown seed, Not ready to be sowed. He was my friend in need, My friend indeed. He told me Love heals everything And the wind was about to sing, Sing a song for my friend in need, My friend indeed.

To The Lord Of All Creations To the Lord of all creations. I thank Thee for Thy trust In us, humankind. I thank Thee for fighting The monsters with me. I thank Thee for all The insights You have given me. I thank Thee for keeping That demon away, That demon, with reasons That crucify your mind. I thank Thee for thy patience. I thank Thee for helping me.. You are precious, dear Lord. Make us strong, Make us strong as the soldiers In your army of righteousness. I thank Thee Lord, For all the blessings you have given me, For all the good friends That crossed my path. To the Lord of all creations. We trust Thee with all our hearts. We follow the path you have chosen for us, With the perfection that is Thee. We breathe the love that is Thee. We breathe the life that is Thee..

Here is an environment we might pray to the Lord, to soften: Commuter Time Outta my way, I'm making bread. If you don't move, I'll leave you dead. Don't tread on me -- I'll tread on you. First come, first served, Is now thee rule. Faster, faster, Is the game. Up the pace, But, feel no pain. Puff a joint, Rich, the point. * * * jm 11 May 2018 |

A Journey Into Infinite Smallness Smaller, and smaller . . . Outside the hull of our ship, the dimensions shrank beyond comprehension. Inside, we seemed to be unaffected. Finally, we could hear music from far away. After becoming exquisitely smaller, our environment suddenly transformed into normal size, once again . . . And, the music became painfully beautiful. * * * jrm 27 May 0218 |
