Homeric Weekends

by J and J - Cancer

do journey's end with the heroes return
or when the hero leaves?
which. is which
and what is, what, is;
so, sing the song of the weekend
of sun and heat and sun and more heat
storms summon strength in a shadowy second
water wasted in a jab, jab, jab combination, no finish to it,
you see.

the smell of charcoal and meat, copious quantites of
dogs burgers snausages...and the beer oh! god bless the beer...
the band played, i played, we kicked it, telling stories with
horns and guitars, stories of chaotic inspiration,
losing your eyes in music and just go go go go
gogogogogogogoinguntilitsallablur
a wonderful, sun powered blur that no amount of grass or trees could ever soak up
not even given as much time as those damn mountains took to make themselves,
yes.

so really, all thi crap is just to say
with song and booze and love and food...
it was a good weekend.
