Everyone Got Bass, Who Has Melody???
tunes and tunes and tunes and tunes
and the sky is a memory too vivid to contain at 4.27 this morn
and Orlando floats on swampland,
the lizards run in out the sun
the heat is a stinging thing
Florida a tropics swelter of dry and wet
the snakes laze in the grass
flowers are reds like all the reds of the hot and rich and raindeluged earth got concentrate
the bars have dark windows smokedglass or are not windowed at all
and the cyclones
the hurricanes
lash the land
in Tallahassee, Fl, Pensacola, Fl, Daytona, Miami and Orlando the air crashes like the seas reincarnate
storms hurl like the gods of the furious
the elemental force
the riven horizon
hammers tongs over this swathe of earth cut outta the pages of the great book, the imagination of men, eons ago
more memory forgot - is there anything sadder???
and the magic is contained in every thing:
slaking cold water
a Florida banana
the 35 plus warm;
the Q, then, this:::
who has melody when too many have just bass???
