• Steely Dan song meaning theories explained: Aja’s one of my favorites….the “dude ranch above the sea” is a rehab facility, the song’s narrative is about someone getting off the junk (all his “dime-dancing is through”)…In verse two the “hardware” he’s “throwing…Read More

    • Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were studio geeks. Perfection is what they strived for in their music. And they always had A-list talent in the studio. Like Mr. Gadd as you just referenced. Gotta respect “The Dan” Great song by the way. Appreciate you. – Damian

  • Never-Ending Dandelions

    A dandelion
    is a weed
    looking harmless
    even beautiful.
    Still a weed
    overtaking the grass
    choking out
    all other life.

    Memories of you
    are dandelions
    spreading rapidly
    overpowering my mind.
    Taking root in all
    facets of my brain
    weeding my garden always
    with every breath I take
    you still live in…Read More

    • Hi Curly Grace. It’s amazing how someone occupies our minds. There they are, whether we want them there or not. Hopefully, your “Dandelion” is a welcomed “weed”.

      • Thank you, Redzone. I wrote this in 2011. So, the “weed” has been pulled out, lol, quite some time ago. Made way for better flowers though…

    • Brilliantly expressed – I must weed my garden after that, before your poem infests my mind! HJx

      • Thank you, Harriet‑Jacqui. May your garden stay clear, and your kindness keep blooming.

        • Between writing and marketing my books, I grow-my-own fruit & veg on a plot next to the forest, the village cricket pitch and tennis club. Weeding my plot is just like painting The Forth Bridge (in Scotland , I live in England). As soon as I finish weeding it’s time to start all over again!

    Blow Daddy

    Blow Daddy
 Front seat
 At a railroad crossing
 Long freight train moving slowly
 Eyes closed
 She’s working her magic
 Deep South
 Things amble along
 He’s about to release
 Last car passes
 Horns honk
 He spews
 Onward with ecstasy
 Rear view mirror
 Guy behind him is pissed
 Let him wait

    • Haha,,,I love how you show what is happening all around. Then the let’m wait had me smiling

    • Hey man, how’s it going? It’s been a while since I read your posts. Great write. No apologies here. Fuck em!

    • Hey Keith
      Word up ?
      Haven’t written much since the DUP demise but thought I should contribute some smut again !!

      Thx bro

    • Hi P.,
      I may have told you I’m a quarter French.
      And in France you can get away with pretty much anything as long as you mind your language.
      Like this one. Direct, no unnecessary chatter, love it!
      Needless to say I’m a huge fan of your writes.
      Kind regards, Gus

      • There used to be TV show called DRAGNET. The main character played a police detective and he was known for saying “just the facts” .
        So Gus, that’s what I modeled my writing on. Just the facts. Say what I want to say and not much more.

        A blow job doesn’t need many words, just the passion of someone giving and someone getting …

        Thanks for your comment…

        Stay tuned

    • Passionately penned, Speak. Another excellent write my friend. You always bring you A-game when it comes to telling a story or painting us a picture. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Thanks Damian

        I don’t writhe much anymore but occasionally a thought comes to mind and I pen it.

        Appreciate the nod !

    • Hahaha, don’t know if you intended the humor but it’s there. What else is there to do while waiting on a mile of rail cart. To be honest we really miss those long trains passing by forcing the entire south to slow down even more. America doesn’t use but a fraction of it’s railway potential anymore, we use to move shit

      • Humor, mirth and a little attitude …
        I’ll tell you one thing, that woman knows what she’s doing …
        She calls it her salvation à la mode ….
        I call it bliss
