A Lunatic Night by Tony Whitaker
a lunatic night
to the edge
we ascend
guitars three
a few beers
we expend
jamming
for hours
on an old
rock song
remember
T. Rex?
Get It On (Bang a Gong)
few things
in this life
beget
such a blast
LSD
marijuana
Pink Floyd
Live
done them all
in the past
but tonight
we three
found God
in our fingers
as we cranked
on our axes
Green and Kirwan
still linger
so until
next week
as we three
play as one
let's pray
we are hallowed
as we ascend
to another
lunatic night
in the Son

Posted by Mara Meade on 05/04/07 at 12:11 AM "Flow" is the stuff we hope for. When it happens, its sacred. A great poem came from great flow. There is nothing better. |

Posted by Morgan D Hafele on 11/13/11 at 05:18 PM i actually really like the mix of vices and religion, in my book they have run hand in hand for a long time. after all, isn't religion a vice for some? great write! can't argue with a night like that. |
