Instead we could have danced. I it always this way, The dissatisfaction and nag that fifteen years would have made any difference? Or does each generation carry that particular pebble in their shoe?
That surely Jack and I would have met to plot our crimes against reason, written our leaflets and tossed them upon
those dusty gutherie roads.
Or sat with Charlie, sucking mad saxes, bluer that backroom reefer?
And, Ah the spindley big-eyed chicks pretending to dig it all; the unknowable synergy, which raises a rank sweat on the lip of anonymous moonlight dancing?
So why am i denied to have shared a gallois with Jean Paul? To have the honor of hating him face to face for his weakness, his outrageous love of life; His meaningless love of life?
Or then to have coiled a short length of rope with Camus A wrap for each of fifteen years lost, of a time we never knew in shoes we never wore, but wanting that crumbling camelot, that we sensed in our heart would never stand. but would yet build back again and again?
Oh the hopeless Sisyphus of us all, lost in a tangier bongo night.
Is it always there, this nail in the foot, Hammered hard on the smile of ironies car?

It’s like a time-traveler’s song. I see that even the inventor of the saxophone is one of the muses here.
“Oh the hopeless Sisyphus of us all….” That has a nice bite. (Could maybe even get way with “Oh, the Sisyphus of us all,….”, since Sisyphus was… y’know….)
-
The pulsing and fickle shoreline kissed a pair of sore feet better but sang deeply of its own leaving, somewhere between “shah la la-la-la-la, live for today” and “wham, bam, shang-a-lang”.
