Our Man in Europe/now Belize, Dave Delacroix: "No man is an Island."

 

Our Man in Europe/now Belize, Dave Delacroix: "No Man is an Island."

(dedicato: "the Usual Suspects.)

...GOE, tell it on da mountain, go tell it O-er the deep blue sea, go tell it in Times-labyrinth, go tell it to History.

Go tell it to our MEMORIES that haunt us night by night. That whisper within your dreams, a restless-restless night.

 AND GO SING it on a mountain, go sing it on the Plain and if don't FIGURE... you'd better live your life all over again.

 Yup! GOE sing your melancholy, go sanguine in your wine, a mystery, only a fool (Oh boy!) get to live twice.

....My name is BOND, Dave-frickin-Bond/licensed to CHILL, mostly ailing? My BABES, an "all-sorts-licorice" in a spangled-paper box but, luckily, I never got the POX, there's that! (Ya gotta wonder!?)

GOE catch me a falling star mandrake root, tell me where all past years R, Poet John Donne in St. Paul's cathedral. Short guy, life like statue but, I guess tall for Elizabethan times? Dodged the PLAGUE. Sang of his AGUE. His poetic legacy wails?

As for me & U worried about "influencer-issues" via internet exposure, spotty small tit kids' tellin ya bout the Pantheon (Rome), the Parthenon (Greece), the Coliseum (Rome), the tower of London, etc. THEIR miserable travel epiphany - on a BUDGET - who'd wanna GOE? Maybe Poet John Donne, resuscitated would wail "No man is an island!" and leave it at that? (Wanna makes U stay the frick Home?)

(John Donne orig:) "GOE & catch a falling star, get with child a mandrake root & tell me where all past year's R or who cleft the Devils foot? -Teach me to hear mermaids singing or to stave off envies stinging and find what winde serves to advance an honest mind."

....GOE! But of course! Go West young Man!!! Yes GO! Go tell it on the mountain, go tell it O-er the deep blue sea! Go THROTTLE-CHOKE Time's labyrinth, go tell it my friend for your chosen History.

...Last I heard? No Man is a whoosits! Ya gotta, and SHOULD wonder... Post Shakespeare, John Donne got himself a HIT SONG, ya think?

c.2025. Dave Delacroix.
