GOOD
MORNIN’ MR HARLEY DAVISON
I
wake up in the morning,
Look
in the mirror,
Stroke
my sleek, white moustachios
Running
down the sides of my smiling mouth
With
its set of sleek, white teeth
And
I say, How’m I doin’ today
Mr
Harley Davison?
And
I reply
I’m
doin’ just fine and dandy
Mr
Harley Davison
And
ready to roll with you
Down
East Atlantic Avenue.
And
I throw my fine, white locks
Over
my shoulder
And
I reach back and bind them with a band
And
I look down at my fine outstanding gut
That
gives true form to my jeans
And
I say, How’m I doin’ today
Mr
Harley Davison?
And
I reply
I’m
doin’ just fine and dandy
Mr
Harley Davison
And
ready to roll with you
Down
East Atlantic Avenue.
And
I look across at the fine tattoos
That
illustrate my manly arms
As
they stretch out horizontal, ready
To
harness and control the buckin’ beast
I‘ll
soon hold between my thighs
And
I say, How’m I doin’ today
Mr
Harley Davison?
And
I reply
I’m
doin’ just fine and dandy
Mr
Harley Davison
And
ready to roll with you
Down
East Atlantic Avenue.
And
I pull on my vest,
My
Heavy Duty Outlaw Black Leather vest
With
concealed weapon Quick Draw gun pocket
And
then my Deaths Head Honor rings in 925 silver
All
eight – and two Viking SS for my thumbs,
And
I say, How’m I doin’ today
Mr
Harley Davison?
And
I reply
I’m
doin’ just fine and dandy
Mr
Harley Davison
And
ready to roll with you
Down East Atlantic Avenue.
And
now my boots
With
their shiny caps and silver studs
And
my black bandanna tied at the back
And
then, for when I ride, in I slip the Harley Davison butt plug*
That
makes me deeply contented when I hit the road.
And
I say, How’m I doin’ today
Mr
Harley Davison?
And
I reply
I’m
doin’ just fine and dandy
Mr
Harley Davison
And
ready to roll with you
Down
East Atlantic Avenue.
Butt Plug is the name given to a device that fits inside the exhausts of this vehicle to improve performance. I didn't know this when I wrote the poem. Strange ...

Welcome
This is a collection of written pieces that comes from things I’ve thought and experienced; occasionally they are illustrated with photos that I’ve taken. They are here because I want people to enjoy them. This is a sort of print performance and as with other kinds of performance it is a meaningless exercise without an audience. So be my audience ...
