Commando

Underwhere

I mumbled

While practicing

My thousand yard stare

Overthere

What

Why are they always a pair

Who

Underwhere

No

Underwear

Oh

I didn’t care

Even if they have a tear

From being caught in my snare

Because

Underwear presupposes

Overwear

Since I knew I had a spare

I supposed I could wear

My underwear over my underwear

Inventing overwear

Overwhere

No

Overwear

Pointless perhaps

High fashion for others

But I still won’t share

Because the fare

Is just not fair

Now back to playing Commando Bear

Guzintas and Gozoutas

I find myself living in the cosmic combo platter of prompts that feed directly up the flapdoodle flagpole that is my stream of consciousness. Trying to make sense of the chaos that is the firehose of information of all flavors while sorting through what may be plausible as opposed to implausible makes me realize that my inputs are like this mess of cables on this utility pole flowing with flapdoodle opinions to the internets while becoming the material basis for many immaterial opinions posing as expository ejaculations of noisy nonsense, twaddle, and other wu wu waste management emissaries that are well outside my immediate sphere of influence. Now that I have expunged my flapdoodle foliage into the stream I will devour a heaping helping of flapjacks with a good portion of thick syrupy material on top.

Good Times Bad Times

My taste in music can be described as eclectic. As a matter of fact that pretty well describes my taste in just about everything. That being said, in regards to bands specifically; I would be hard pressed to single out bands I hate. It is equally difficult to single out bands I love. There is a wide variety and genre of songs I love, done by various and varied bands in many styles. But there are songs done by bands I like that I grew sick of due to the endless play rotation on AM radio stations.

Now with streaming music and a well placed subscription I am given the random access algorithm that I have been waiting for my whole life. Good for me. Bad for bands livelihoods. But I keep finding new music and music from past eras that I missed. I keep discovering many old bands that are new to me but old and passe to others. Best of all I am no longer stuck with an album or CD with only one or two songs I like.

♩♪♩♬ ♬♩♪♩

Now with a few keystrokes it seems I can find even the most obscure band or artist from the distant past, so I can joyously relive the memories or wonder what the heck I was thinking at the time. Either way they sure don’t make em like that any more.

For good or for bad, here we are.

In the world I was born into
There were rules handed down
From all the people around

No moaning
No crying
No sniveling

Toughen up
Suck it up
Pick yourself up

No blood
No broken bone
No doctor needed

Shake it off
Walk it off
Don’t be a big baby
Nobody likes a whiner

Were they
Was I
Was the world
Off it’s rocker
Or on it?

Any Port In A Storm

The sun rises and I PORT into my fancy binary ciphering machine for my morning imPORT input stream. Download all the compiled dreams and extraneous bytes of the nonsense my fleshy skull soft drive gleaned through it’s sensor array the day before and collate that which may be imPORTant and that which can be ignored, with the disclaimer and knowledge that I do so at my own peril. When on the lookout PORT side it’s usually the starboard side that gets you. After exPORT I gather my PORTable combo cipher / adding machine and wander out to the PORT of Chicago for my morning sortie.
