It was a hot fucking day in July. We were young and gloriously naïve. The Grateful Dead were set to pack JFK for a jubilant celebration. Shakedown Street was shaking as all the Deadheads shopped for tie dyed t-shirts and kind grilled cheese sandwiches. JFK was an old decaying stadium and one could envision gladiators in leather helmets goingContinue reading “CRIMSON WHITE AND INDIGO”

FINDING RELIGION
The pursuit of knowledge and wisdom is basically human and neverending. We can seek a leprechaun with his magical lucky charms or try to run the voodoo down by the bayou. False icons can not replace science but science must beat with a human heart. Existential struggles remain. The learned astronomer doth proclaim the way if we’re willing toContinue reading “FINDING RELIGION”
THE OLD NORTH STAR BAR
The old North Star bar was a true legend. It stood on 27th and Poplar. It was far enough away from Center City to be off the beaten path. They had the main bar on the first floor and a room upstairs to host poetry readings. They had readings every Tuesday and it became a place to go for poets. GregoryContinue reading “THE OLD NORTH STAR BAR”
BIG STINKY TANTRUMS

MICRO BRAWLERS
So now I am the proud owner of an Abdullah the Butcher micro brawler. I’m sure many will question why a grown man needs to own such a toy.

POET SLAP FIGHTS AND ASS KISSING
We are getting snippy and contentious anymore. It doesn’t seem like anyone can have any fun anymore. So we have poets declaring on their posts that ass kissing doesn’t belong in poetry. Hmmm, I initially misread the post and thought he wrote ass kicking. I was thinking to myself that I can see room for both. Sometimes you do haveContinue reading “POET SLAP FIGHTS AND ASS KISSING”
