The Pearly Blues #8
1994-02-27
she wrote a pen dry in 2 days
the good stuff'll get people listening to themselves
bucketful up the the old well
fresh as it ever was
"can't step in the same creek twice" but it's always wet
can only sort-of take credit
mostly a happy accident
don't know for sure but, then no one's really supposed to
flashlight spotlight
crumbling basement
full house, crank the mouse
it don't get any better
monologue, dialogue, tri-alogue, smile-alogue,
waxing sarcastic
"cannery row" doc "loved the truth, but it wasn't a generally
shared love, and could be and dangerous mistress"
no, not everyone's driven to "live the question"
maybe it's time to pick up an oar and walk inland
it's a long hike to who you really were all along,
to get born again
nothing really better to do anyways
flashlight spotlight
crumbling basement
full house, crank the mouse,
people listening to themselves
it don't get any better
go ahead, ignore everyone's encouragement
to quit
go ahead and write you're pen dry
nothing really better to do anyways
the diamond in her head
is the song in your heart
all you have is all you've done, better get started
