Met Billy Strings 8/3/24 Penn State University selfies + video of show

Met Billy the next morning of night #2 in Happy Valley and he couldn't have been any sweeter, humble, down to earth, personable & friendly.(Happenstance selfie) ——-{@

Happenstance happens again so here we are! Walking down West College Ave Penn State with an old school West Side roommate and he's like, look the old Imperial Motor Lodge, and I was about to say, Robby Krieger The Doors stayed there when I met him, and there's Billy Strings 😎🌹 "Keep on keeping on, Billy, you're a national treasure" 

———{@

(live video of)

Billy Strings fabulous rendition of Bob Dylan's Rainy Day Women # 12 & 35 ("they'll stone you" Dylan song "everybody must get stoned"). Of course Billy's unique, gifted, virtuoso voicing clearly makes it his own and the crowd eats it up! For not having any percussion / drums the low end is there from the big stand up bass and rocked the Bryce Jordan Center where Penn State plays hoops.

Hanging in the Air Today _ new summer ‘24 poem

Hanging in the Air Today

Vibrations of color
Paintings of sound
Spinning around
Seasonal cycles
Spring rain
Rosebud: blossoms
Petals fade and fall
Harvest under the moon
Shooting stars spraying light
Colorful sounds of vibration
Light, love & joy; celebration
Experiencing it together
The Apollonian – Dionysian split
Inside and out
Outside and in
Frozen blanket; snowed-in
Sunshine tilted
Pinball wizard
Sunshine bends
Grateful spring again

No One Knows Lonely Like I Do _ new poem / song 2024

No One Knows Lonely Like I Do

I'm lonely for you
I'm lonely for you
And no one knows lonely
Like I do

I'm feeling kinda blue
I'm feeling kinda blue
So tell me
Are you feeling blue too

There's a deep creek
Where we once swam
Tadpoles to frogs to Princes
Now no one is as lonely
As I am

I'm too true - it's true
And it's hurting you
But I'm always true
Always true to you

I'm lonely for you
I'm lonely for you
And no one knows lonely
Like I do

January Hawk _ new poem 2024 January

January Hawk

A big fierce fast hawk
Intending to pluck from the flock
Sink in its talons and clutch secure
Not even requiring any kind of lore
- the analysis of life -
A typical everyday routine flight
Which way could this go
Morning cold wind and snow
On the hunt in our backyard
With the bird feeders, is it hard?
Feeding the birds so they survive
Everyday is a chance to be alive
And this is not transactional for me
I feed the birds and let them be free
It's not a question "to be or not to be"
Feeding the birds helps them thrive
So we listen to the bluejays cry
Sounding a loud persistent alarm
Warning a Hawk will do serious harm
