Project #13


SXSW

Austin Texas

Each March they come like lemmings

to be crowned in the pageant like a blue suede king

eyes caught

from the fading day

by the end of the week

the BOOM BOOM BOOM

on the

drums

of the ears

the guitars preened like

birds of paradise

wait in the sun

for their

shot

at

fame and

beyond

then

we sleep all the way home

through the mountains

and unload

the van

and wait

for

it

to

come again
