Inside the Core of the Deep and High Jazz
by Joris                    4 Mar 2006


Walkin’ thru my head, singin’ a happy tune
Somethin’ bout my baby, gonna see her real soon
Walked down by the river just to see what I could see
But it faded down the shoreline to some jaded memory

Might be when I used to hang out at the ol’ dock
Where no one ever went, hangin’ out in my hammock
A li’l higher than hot, a lot to think or maybe not
But what’s anyone doin’ walkin’ in my head, doc?

Sittin’ alone in an empty hall, Eve's along the wall
Milky pool beside the oak, place of peace for ducks and all
Bar stool rolls across the floor, empty blue, like you
That scent, her scent, Canal #5, or is it 22?

Caterwaul, Milk Dud, Caterwaul again
Cry your chocolate b*lls off...  and then
Malty sugar, go away, ain’t no good no mo’
Her face floats low along the trail, many days ago

Castin’ a hairy shadow all across the sage
I walked back thru my pages, up to the next stage
The floor above a door, shaped a lot like a d*ldo
She h*mped my leg for luck as I gazed out the window

Then she said somethin’ bout a big salt shaker
I say hop along baby, got to shake dat money maker
Walkin’ out de mezzanine of my head
She's standin’ on de balcony of my mind

I watched her walk away, she took her shadow with her
Can’t say I miss her much, the pain was living with her
I saw a space ship one night, might have been her mama
now I'm feelin' pretty good, and without her life is warmer

I once thought someone locked me clear out of my head
but I found the key and let myself right back instead
it could have been quite messy, yeah, that’s what she said
thank God my head is still a head, and isn’t yet all dead

Thanks Lorraine. I did everything I could think of to censor it, too. I hope it's okay for the board.

Cool J, Good ideal to make a "warning" before hand.
Some here love to be the "moral police"(not u Willy).
I know lets make someone feel like a puppy kicker cuz they stole a magazine from the Dentists office!!


Besides that..I like your writing J.They have computer programs that let you make a book.They give you all the supplies and software needed to make your very own book.Cover and all!
My Mikey and I got one for his bro' at x-mas time.

Check it out.

Keep writing bro.It helps.Besides writing helps heal your soul.A recent study shows that people w/ chronic illness actually have physical healing benefits from writing.Be it journal or poems.

You got alot to say.Speak up all others be damned!!

[Dude]

Thanks Starbright. Ha ha! Are you still going on about that magazine thing! It's starting to get comical! I love it. And thanks very much for your appreciation for the need to have a voice! Yes, I think we should all be writing books. I think you also should write one, you have an interesting life, full of adventures and thrills. I'll check what you were talking about. I think I saved one site for publishing online. I'm nowhere near that point yet, but one day I hope I can finalize it.

Thanks kiddo! Be tough, there's beasties out there. And I've got your back.
