Our man in Europe/dave delacroix/Here comes Johnny Love Muscle!/part 19: "...for ZELDA."
There is not a doubt in my mind that when Abe Lincoln delivered his speech: The Declaration of Independence, on the battlefield field of Gettysburg, where so much butchery had taken place...he had tooth-ache or crotch-itch?
There's NO levity, here, folks. Just an observation of the on-going Human condition... Re. tooth-ache, etc.? YOU would have. I would have, too. It's a NO-brain er. Comes with the territory.
ABE probably needed a tooth-pick. All General Ulysses S. Grant could do was offer his President a bottle of Whisky!...?
Does the Soul get younger...as mind, body-limbs degenerate?
Universally, it's possible.
Once again, we "prep" for yuletide;
Where are the Claudia's, Carole's, Anita's and Zelda's of yest er-year?
Claudia would arrive with a new Tiffany table lamp.
Carol? A Yiddish tree, plus sweetmeats.
Anita? She would bounce out her best "chiffon" and dance the night away!
Zelda? She would bring her Heart and - like the Sun - BLAZE!...
Did I forget to mention Wanda?.. SHE would ignore the festivities. Instead? She'd find a quiet room and work feverishly, polishing her SURF BOARD (long one).
Unlike festive "tweakers" on Cocaine, THESE ladies had no USE for Shame...and spoke with intelligence.
WHERE ARE they now? Where!?... Dead? Buried? Living, perhaps, in that sad Stretch Limousine called Maturity? -under, go figure, the ALL SEEING EYE of that Clown in the sky?
I KICK.
I KICK HARD!!!
Abe Lincoln.. Poor man. GREAT man. He lost his young, only son, to illness.
Heartbroken.
Why? And how can we thrive in the throes of such vicissitudes?
Jock-itch?
Scalp-itch?
Menstrual nightmares?
Bi-polar-ism?
NO DENTAL PLAN?
Jeeze!? What am I gonna wear tonight? It's Christmas!!!!
...I think I'll wear "the Declaration of Independence"... for Zelda.
