Grandiose Giggle

Posted on by

Some book or some manual somewhere
Warns of delusions as grand
As the ones
I believe
I’m OK
With the knowledge 


There are sunrises refusing to hustle
And sunsets equally reticent
But for my permission and wink


Rivers refuse to empty to sea
And winds wait in luffed sails
Lest my right hand’s at the helm and my left holds the lantern at 2:44 in the morn’


Artist’s notes will not paint
Or give wings to the heart
‘Til I dream that our feet give them grace to dance with


The Firework’s grand finale 
Along with The Checkered Flag 
Pause
For my nod
Yes
I am grand

In case you’re not mine
Or time steals you from me
I’ll say now what I know I’d say then
My god you are hot
With your grey and red lines 
And the virtues still black on your skin

That muscle back there 
Makes me wild like back then
Still a classic -your drawl and your pen
Oh the years and the day trips
Fast curves and near misses
And the danger again and again

I hope that you’ll find 
That I made the right choice 
That no restoration was needed
We ride fine me ‘n you and our rockin’ pit crew
Be damned rules of the road never heeded

Sugar sing
To me
Not only of the Day’s news
No

Confidently place in my hands the pirate’s map of you

Trust me with all that I can know of Treasures you’ve left everywhere really

OK -little by little then….
