Time’s Wingèd Hotrod Tailgates Our Patoots*

 “It’s easier to turn an aquarium into fish soup than to turn fish soup into an aquarium.”


(Russian saying)

Time’s wingèd hotrod tailgates our patoots.
The piper that denies it is pie-eyed.
Rosin up the bow and lick a toad!
Time’s wingèd hotrod tailgates our patoots.
The Jackass and the Knave are in cahoots.
Fancy your cojones** boiled or fried?
Time’s wingèd hotrod tailgates our patoots.
The piper that denies it is pie-eyed.

*Texan for the nether cheeks
**Spanish for the testicles

“The decisive test of our age… is whether we will recognize this in time.”

About JMN

I live in Texas and devote much of my time to easel painting on an amateur basis. I stream a lot of music, mostly jazz, throughout the day. I like to read and memorize poetry.
