Just a little place where people go
To have a quiet drink,
Listen to the band and think.
Maybe meet a friend…
Mending a broken heart with a lot of verbs of melody of afro music reconnecting to heart! a time valued to steadfast and never mix any opportunity
It ur boy tjacks wayward,
one time

James Michael Taylor A true classic. Deceptively simple, yet so many feelings in there: angst, loneliness, and hope, all rolled into one. Davis When I wrote this, 50 years ago, I was afraid it would seem like nothing happened. Thank you for being able to read between the lines.

“I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be.” - Charles Dickens
In jungle of the Amazon they mix a heavy drink ‘a get’cha loaded
A friend of mine went down and tried it. Told me that his head damn near exploded.
The recipe is complicated, formula passed down for generations.
And great respect is given to the one with the most potent preparation.
I don’t want any but I know someplace where you can get it.
No I don’t want any but I know someplace where you can get it.
I know this guy downtown. I'm pretty sure he's gonna like you when you meet him.
He’s not a chemist or a shaman, just a friend of a friend from Costa Rica.
It’s hard to know who to trust and your my friend and that’s the reason that I mention.
It’s not a game or a joke my friend. I recommend you exercise caution.
And it ain't exactly recreational ‘less that’s what you call “entertainment”
I don’t want any but I know someplace where you can get it.
No I don’t want any but I know someplace where you can get it.
So you say you wann be some kinda freaky new-age psychonaut
And open up all the doors and windows your subconscious has got.
It’s just like any other carnival ride. So keep your arms and your legs inside,
And please remain in your seat until the ride comes to a complete stop.
Josephine (named after the Empress) was a feral kitten when we caught her, with the worst case of worms I've ever seen. When we brought her back from the vet, she attacked everyone and everything in the house, cats and humans alike. We took it…
Scooter. Where to begin? Scoots had been rescued as a kitten, by a couple of guys who worked at a tire shop. It was cold and the snow was deep and he'd lost both ears and most of his tail to frostbite. But he's a tough bastard.
The guys couldn…
Jesse's spirit animal is the sloth.
On the other hand, he's extraordinarily greedy. Top up the food and he's in there first. Freshen up the water, and he's on the scene. It's so bad that we have to lock him up at wet food time or he'll go from…
Juan is a very strange cat. Or a very normal chupacabra.
He has 28 toes, and tends to get caught on things. Otherwise he's astonishingly graceful, and an outstanding jumper. And he's quiet, and he's immaculate.
He's over 15 years old, and…
I recently hired a contractor for some shelter renovations, and I must suggest that I am exceptionally gratified with their work. They were trained, prompt, and went exposed to and beyond to ensure that caboodle was done to my satisfaction. They were also altogether communicative all the way through the unalloyed process, keeping me informed of any issues that arose and addressing them promptly. Overall, I highly mention favourably this contractor to anyone in need of rank clockwork and unusual customer service. As a result of you!
This song contains the body of the first song I ever wrote. A poem sent to me while I was away to school in Idaho in 1959 by Carolyn Opitz that I sat at an old pump organ and sang a thousand times when I was a junior in high school.

My mom’s dad was a coal miner. Her mother died of TB when she was a kid. When she was twelve, her dad, dying of black lung, slit his throat with a butcher knife. That left her with a cripple little brother to take care of…

I love that album. You gifted it to me a long time ago, and I still think about those hapless men becoming ill and dying, making hickory handled hardware. And "Help!' raises so many emotions in me--that people would just stand on the shore and do nothing while you risked your life alone to save that boy. All of the songs on Slaughter Mountain are ones that are so well written and so memorable!

David Young That’s the album that got me started loving your music! I used to listen to it often on my drive to work and back.
