a one two
a one two

two chord
then three
don/'/t need a clock
just a beating heart

in the dark
the eyes I
remembered

the animal I
uncanny simplicity
of guitar

And the female eye
that burns through
a soul

You could play it well
And I wash the dishes
mesmerized

yeah,
And I like to clean windows
in the pouring rain
as well as bake!
Peace!

If this was born out of trying to play the guitar, I want to hear the song! Once again there are lessons embedded in the story line. It takes me more than one read to find them, which makes your work a puzzle worth reading!
One constant truth lies in the last line; and it applies universally to man and beast alike.
But man is the only species that KNOWS he will not live forever. Tick tick, indeed, alicewhite!
