Yellowing Out

*

Yellowing out as September moves us on

Bottoming out as October hauls us in

Parachuting with hope calling on;

Charged to heal scars deep within

*

You are not the Street Level Superstar

Your life travelled further than his

You hold an angel most acceptable

Unsure of what is true 

or what is tenable. 

*

Yellowing out as Dec calls forth

Bottoming out with Jan's cool breath

Parachuting away from the constant screens

Charged to forget 

those hurtful screams

*

  You are a Tricky True Superstar

You moved far far from the giles

Never-owned the home; nor repaired the tiles

Sustained only with 

Words from Afar...

Izumi saved my day

which started at a canter in 10

Coffees in and doubt soon outed

Q codes offering a fine fine brew

I sailed swift though Babylon

lacking aim or purpose strong

Needing a place to dock

sing song rock 

(drown the ever-present tick tock)

And Izumi was there waiting

Neither to rock nor to mock

But to regale True Tales

of popular cats with similar sounds:

Lawrence and Rollins

Collins and Frame

Keiji Haino 

Unspeakable winos

Her pastels painted a popular pitch

Much to my taste and for which?

Mizutani? Nakatani? 

I tell you Sunny:

Izumi 

You saved my day
