Realgypsifree Poem by Reginald Goodridge

[smile]

back to back
khalouha
milk
sex on the beach
vodka-lime
lemon corona
too much time

mountain climbing
focused in ford
Cinco de Mayo
laughing too hard
smile too bright
couldn't possibly be bored!

yeah!

time passed quicker than rads
but it wasn't a season, wasn't a fad

it was more like a coma
-long sleep

forever and a day
-i'll weep

but keep it so ReaL
and gypsy free
um, gyps'i' with an 'i'
i'd prefer it be

misspelled
oh well, oh hell
a lot of good things
but we won't tell
so many stop-gaps
yeah, that was swell

and all in the whitedrop
not the blackground
-in the daylight
like your Mars bound

rocket
sprocket
machine
sunbeam

photons
neurons
neutrons
hydro-gen bombs!

{PAUSE}

it's so sweet
to speak hard
i'm FreE and ReaL true

[oh yes, ]

thank you God!
