That's very generous, Mary-Ann's man! :)

 

That's Mary-Ann's man

stamped from a different block, he

loves her just the same

No, no. "I" was first,

"you" have always been second.

Chicken and egg, bro.

 

Chicken and egg, bro,

A salmon called Mary-Ann

remains Mary-Ann.

 

Remains Mary-Ann

has turned into! But the cat

loves her just the same.

 

Loves her just the same,

Mary-Ann turned sashimi.

Even with ginger.

they don't go to war

my heart and mind, fast allies

laugh until i cry

 

laugh until I cry

what a bunch of bums! Gotta

give 'em all credit

 

(the picture was Gilligan with the rest of the castaways, not sure why it didn't show- showing now, if it goes away again it looked like this)

Give 'em all credit,

They'll charge til their heart's content.

Payback: feasible?

Dakini power

Mysterious, the female

Container of stars

container of stars

turn it upside down tonight

scatter the cosmos!

Scatter the cosmos

might follow the drinking gourd

up on the downside.

up on the downside

the Morning Glory has opened

yielding forth nectar...

yielding forth nectar

a little Australian hootch

up on the down side

 

 

 

Up on the down side

 

We can crest the waterfall

 

The silver river!

 

the silver river

the breeze and the moonlight play

I'll be dancing home

rest in the wave crest

watch the foamy swells and pray

spare the tiny crabs...

Ignorance is bliss

So difficult to achieve

Stop trying so hard

(its a little slow alright...)

 

 

stop trying so hard

said the hammer to itself

they are just straw men...

Who knows what people are like

here? -- scarecrows, crooked!

 

(this is my translation of an actual haiku by Issa.)

Here? -- Scarecrows, crooked!

Covered in flocks of blackbirds,

Resigned to dismay.

 

resigned to dismay

pluck up my courage, move on

there are things unseen
