Overheard cell phone call with Oedipus
Hey Oedipus- yeah I heard- Shit is totally gonna blow over…
What?…When?
You say your eyes? Totally blind?
OK, do you have any family that…no I wasn’t thinking…
Right but you did not know…
I’m just saying that givin the option you would have….
What do you mean there are guys narrating your life?
Get a good night sleep and call me.
her tune floats slowly over waves
pulling proud men into watery graves
the captain is a man so wise
but he’s no genius he is a man of vice (I don’t have to tell you)
the tune it penetrates his ears
staring into the thickest fog without fear
Is she part mermaid
I don’t know
The soft flesh between my legs sure does grow
when she is near (I am sure you get my drift)
Despite the crew’s desperate acts
the captains eyes were locked- his hands were clasped
upon the rocks we did crash
our brittle body broke and
down came the mast
up late…messing around….aborted song idea….
This song is about a prominent lawyer that fell from grace. He fought corruption, successfully, for many years.; and he helped many many people. After a long day of saving the world he would visit high end prostitutes and have unprotected sex. It really struck me that he specifically would ask the prostitutes to have unprotected sex (this came out in the media and further sensationalized the scandal). This indicated to me that he was a risk taker and perhaps a little out of control. I imagined him diving head first into a pool of pleasure- night after night- asking for special conference meetings in the “judges chambers” (side note: I would have also accepted “brief sidebar” or “remand with tail” for a joke here).
Equations lead to rational thinking- or at least you would think.
T: I’ll work from home then- fuckem.
M: You do not want that….
T: Why the Eff not?
M: No, sure- do what you want. But be prepared to masturbate way more than you ever have in your life. I mean way more. Take your world record- like when you first came home from church camp and your parents were at a relatives house when you were 14- then multiply it by ten.
T: Oh snap I did not think about that. Carpel tunnels- know what I am saying?
M: Look at this shit!
M pulls out phone and loads video
M: I have this on my phone! Do you hear me? On my friggin phone- how are you going to hold up against the internet? All alone with your mouse and shit- like you are a will power havin moafuka.
T: Moth to the flame- Moth to the flame.
M: This lady, these gross guys, this is their job. It is free. You are not made of stone right?
also an owl or two….
my apologies to Alan for ripping off one of his guitar licks.
