 Our Man in Europe, now Belize, Dave Delacroix: "The Whistler."

1) LONDON BRIDGE IS falling down, my fair Lady. I flipped a Nickel on Dean street-SOHO, it came up a Dime, don't ask me why. Should-a bought a lottery ticket?

London bridge is falling down, my fair lady. A Billie Holliday song. It resonated! How come it gets "moon-ish", Hemmingway's Death in the Afternoon. Like an unemployed Matador "sans TORO" pawning his gear? 

London bridge is falling down, my fair lady. I got TWO PENNIES trying to mate, a guitar missing a "D" string, a voiceless cancer throat, nothing drums. Yet a PULSE!

London bridge is falling down, my fair lady. Who "da Man" who counts your "counters" down on main street? Money changers in Jerusalem. Jesus without a Credit card or Bitcoin? (Where did it all go wrong?)

2) And ALL THE KINGS HORSES and all the King men couldn't put him back together again. Ya gotta be "Ray Noble" conducting, when "Al Bowlly" croons. A talent unique. Prophets have the worst luck. AL got bombed by a Nazi V-2 rocket in London-WW2! (WotchagonnaDo?)

All the Kings horses & all the Kings men, sticking plaster/band-aid/WD40 maybe? -"I am the WHISTLER and I whistle by night. I seep into your sleep. Conscience, regrets, plague your nap.

All the King horses & all the Kings men. My NEED is your KEEP! - Needy people need needy sleep yet fail to honor their waking hours...Yet who's to judge in this Bi-polar World? The yen for the YEN, ducats, drachmas, COIN, something U cannot eat.

3) RING-A-RING a ROSES, a pocket full of poesies. "ATTICHOO! ATTICHOO!" We all fall down. (No Medicare!)

Ring-a-ring a-roses, a pocket full of poesies. Alas, nothing will ever put our Love back together again. "ATTICHOO! ATTICHOO!" Like clowns. We all fall down. Or fret ourselves into dusty death.
