Radio Love, Singleton Hippie Art

RADIO LOVE
(c) Singleton 2008

Ten thousand songs
streets
stories
and
I'm high...

Bare toes
balanced
on the very edge
of yesterday,
A rock and roll
ballet of
Butterflies and Bowie...
Incense and drums
rolling,
snapping,
Jiffy Pop on an open fire....
Tin can percussion
pulling you in...
And we're high...

Ten thousand lyrics
penciled
in the wind....

Preachin' to the Sky
(c) Singleton 2008

It's 2 A.M.
and we're building
bonfires of beer bottles,
crackling, snapping,
breaking
in a pick-up stick pile,
amber
disco lights
under yesterday's moon.

In the morning
you won't remember
the perfect sequence
of the stories,
the way we played
hokie-pokie
with
the fire....
the spells
the magpie fairies cast...
but you'll smile....

And I'll keep preachin' to the sky....

Peace, the Love Drug
(c) Singleton 2008













Airdrumming
in a space
so empty
I color the walls
with
make~believe
music...
blues wailing
in the distance,
crashing into corners,
and the chorus,
a thousand stray birds strong,
strumming on steel guitar strings in the wind.

And we're high.
Lost in the accidental peace
of a song
you've heard a thousand times before,
but never like this....
free.....
dancing in the wind.....
