    Shadowville Speedway

    In a taxi watching a sporting house
    Beside a Linwood vacant lot
    Silverdollar moon portspotting
    Constellation like a sailor's knot.

    The sky was black
    ink and glitter in the night
    Train whine saxophone
    out beyond the light.

    I'm in love with a ghost
    blue turns to grey
    Put a pyramid on my head
    to take my pain away.

    Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway
    Riding slow down a one way street.

    Brown Recluse magic
    drifting around the shed
    Someone has it in for me
    I must not lose my head.

    Moving with the speedo life
    several with me left behind
    Burned too many bridges
    defragmented my time.

    Somewhere in time
    I've seen all this before
    In a magazine or a dream
    of a distant war.

    Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway
    Riding slow down a one way street.

    Manifested destiny
    a manifesto and a part
    All the actors still agree
    that ever had a heart.

    Hazel knew the karma
    she kept it in a bottle
    Black tooth mojo
    marked index cards.

    Bundles over the side
    of Dillingham Bridge
    Splashing as ripples
    reflect from the stars.

    Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway
    Riding slow down a one way street
    Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway
    Don't look back, don't admit defeat.

    -Will Dockery

    An all time classic from you and Henry Conley...
    Of course the resident trolls NancyGene and Pendragon will no doubt >>>>>> disagree.

    While the fact remains that Nancy G. is a no talent stalker troll and >>>>>> Penhead is a delusion little fuckwit who thinks he's a better poet than >>>>>> T.S. Eliot... ha ha.

    That is all.
    You nailed it.

    Good day...!

    Good morning my friend, hope you're having a good day so far.

    Did some yard work and now am relaxing in the warm sunshine on the side
    of river...!


    Looks like a good day for that.

    Indeed, any day is good day for that..!

    Agreed.

    Yikes........

    Buk was an odd fellow..............

    Buk was an untalented, illiterate pig.

    No one mentioned sales

    As we know, you often do, such as with your defense of Pat Boone's

    Lest we forget.

    Howdy Doc, that's an oldie... ha ha.

    Good evening old friend.
