plant a big one

[judih]

plant one for robert
give a led to zeppelin
help allen look for alleyway anarchies
call sammy d, the one-eyed dynamo
let dino in suave tuxedo slump
introduce the ratty poets
and flaunted gyspy flamenco queens
plant an herbal reverie
for joni and miles and born again whole earthians
plant some more
and water the soil


-go ahead, plant

and praise Elvis!!!!!

[judih]

get an Elvis goin on
re-plant the Pres
nourish those gyrating roots
plug in the electric
put Graceland in the hothouse
plant a seedling of composites and genetics
plant em and plant Little Richard nearby
propagate that vital stuff
feed the agrosphere
generate the rock rhizomes
keep the DNA alive

[JRL]

I'm gonna call Elvis on the Ouiji Phone
I'm gonna call Elvis on the Ouiji Phone
He's still the king and it's still his throne
Lights are on maybe someones home
I'm gonna call Elvis on the Ouiji Phone

---Bob "Slim Bawb" Pearce

[judih]

hookin up connections
ouiji plug ins always on hand
a little seance
a little misty mountaintop
callin jim morrison, got a conference call with duke

[Mark Coburn]

plant one for trane and diz
gary snyder and laying it on the land
plant one for jam
back to where the plants are free

[judih]

aerating the soil
got some sprouts for lou reed
dirty boulevard needs weeding
hand me the spade
plantin some purple sage for the new dawn
and farther along, a little byrds
plantin my garden, preparing the ground
packet of seeds, hand me one, willya?

[Mark Coburn]

the seeds are
blowin' in the wind
i'm surrounded by
blue skies watchin'
them lighter than
air puffs as they rise

[judih]

plant a sky trane
a fluff and banter dolphy
dylan nods his cryptic nod
bonzai petunias for new orleans
let the garden grow
basilicum, oregano, aphrodisiac and rhyme

[Mark Coburn]

parsley, sage, and
flags on the streets
today-0
in the land of
Barbara Fritchie
me listening to
pharoah sanders
shanti & mahavishnu
ali akbar & sultan kahn
raga blessed
the creator has a
master plan

[judih]

creation is the master high
it matters if its from the heart
sing amy, do it don cherry
love it and watch the blooms unfold

[Mark Coburn]

ninah and eagle eye
fruit from the
cherry tree
you've taken me
to the brighter side
my only struggle
is just to let it be

[judih]

tuning in
tonal eloquence
relative righteousness
adopting me like a long lost friend
offering tribal hearth and fire
circle of elements
converging in reverence

[Mark Coburn]

festival in the desert
tinariwen
ali farka dancing
and robert planting
them desert flowers
by the bonfires @ night

[judih]

planting a torch in the garden of hope
singing a smoke-ring for safety
softly stirring the compost of fears
adding love and courage
gardening small patches of sassafras
keeping humour untrimmed
