Lunatic Fringe Tour


The limbs held,
wrapped tight as mother's embrace
and from atop the tall oak retreat,
the view below shrinks all

into an ant parade
and I fashioned a leaf hat
to shield the sun,
playing an acorn trumpet
as blue jays became
bobby sock dancers
to a tree bound mad man's music.


Nightfall brought the owls hoo,
harmonizing with a cicada chorus,
until the stage became too crowded
with wannabe doo wops,
as the moon spotlighted
a nocturnal
American Bandstand performance
and when strobe lights and siren screams
filled the street below,
I was coaxed down to earth.


Steady I descended, taking a bow
by the mighty oak trunk,
for show was over,
for this night anyway.

Pink Floyding it?

A momentary lapse of reason...:-)

[Will Dockery]

Some of the top local talents have formed a Pink Floyd tribute band, and will be performing Friday night at the Frog town festival.

From the caliber of talents, it should be quite a simulation.

😀

[drive-by]

Tough sell, unless dead on....report on that Will...or maybe sound

[Will Dockery]

Yes, that will be a tough one, no matter how talented.

[EBG]

Obviously, you weren't even considered.

[Will Dockery]

Note that EGB is completely oblivious to Jimmy's poem, but is only here to stalk behind me with his lame attempts at personal attack.

Kind of like... "Brooke".

:)

[Will Dockery]

Here they are, Jimmy, all locals, Jason Ezell on lead vocals, Josh Becker on keyboards, Dean Tovey on lead guitar:

"Formed for a one-night-only performance of Pink Floyd for the Loft's "Legend Series," The Surrogate Band consists of members from various bands including Skydog Gypsy, One Ton Tablespoon, and Stereomonster, as well as other local artists and musicians from the Columbus, GA area..."

[drive-by]

Nice cover by The Surrogate Band...thanks Will.....a lot of work put in to get a Floyd flavor....

J

[Will Dockery]

True, I think they nail it pretty good...

[Brooke]

Leave me out of your stalker fantasies. You are also clueless about the viability of a Floyd cover band. I am friends with someone who plays in one and they are in great demand.

Yet here you are... unable to think about or post about anyone but "Will Dockery".

I'm booked at Frogtown Hollow Crawfish Festival for 1pm tomorrow afternoon, looking forward to that myself, also.

[EBG]

You use that line a lot and I'm sure you'd love to believe it but that bigger question is why you are often the sole target on here for well over a decade. Even the folks you call trolls have a somewhat cordial relationship with most everyone here but you. Maybe it's because you are a loathsome cocksucker who is an easy target. Perhaps people despise your endless self-promotion of the rubbish you call your music/poetry. Maybe you are just viewed as weak and unable to really put up a solid defense of your shityard of a life.

I say all of the above.

[Will Dockery]

I say you have a jealous obsession with me.

And I wager the real poets here agree.

Shall we ask them, EBG?

:)

[EBG]

5 minutes! It's like you were waiting since last night for me to post.
Anyone can call him or her self a poet. It's not for you to say who is or who isn't.

[Will Dockery]

EBG, when you finally post a poem the real poets will let you know how you did.

Right now...

You are nothing.

As a bona fide "real poet," I think you've got a symbiotic relationship with the various trolls (and Corey), that you both take great pains to nourish and sustain.

Not that I'm complaining. I enjoy the show, so long as it stays relatively harmless.

[Will Dockery]

Yet I made the choice to ignore PJR and Cujo (at your suggestion) and a year later I'm still with that, Michael.

So... you're suggesting now that I add EBG aka Brooke to the list?

That is something to consider, if so...

:)

[Michael Pendragon]

That's up to you.

I honestly think you enjoy interacting with them, and that you use them (like socks) to keep yourself the focus of attention.

And, again, I'm fine with that.

The only times when I object to all the trolling and counter-trolling are when it becomes the focus of every thread, when family members (living or dead) are considered "fair game," and when people start making (or implying) threats.

[EBG]

You have shown yourself to be incapable of critical and unbiased review. You hatred of far superior poets is all over this newsgroup. No, I feel no need to post any poetry or songs here. I have plenty, but they aren't free and some could easily be traced to me. Not everyone is an attention whore such as yourself.

[EBG]

What's stopping you? Maybe you do see some truth in what I type? Maybe you just enjoy me bumping your poems to the top? You certainly don't mind doing that yourself to your old posts even after years of stagnation.

You have to be - there are few people left in this group who post on a regular basis. If nothing else, Dockery is prolific with his posting even if it is all about himself and his pulp poetry.

That's not my style although I do call 'em as I see 'em.

[Will Dockery]

That's funny, EBG.

You list all the flaws you see in me, yet offer nothing about yourself.

Michael asked for a criticism of his poetry, specifically... and you ignored him.

You don't even pretend to write poetry.

Admit it... the only purpose you have here is to stalk and harass me.

And you're somewhat inept even at that.

Troll on, loser.

I can ignore him if I so choose. Got a problem with that? Tough shit. It is funny coming from you, whose usual poetry critique consists of something like "Nice one", after which you whore out your own poetry on their thread.

I've written songs. I don't call it poetry. People pay to hear them and really, that's all I care about.

It has you frothing all day, just waiting for me to make my brief nightly appearance when you can reply within minutes, sometimes even seconds, to me.

Again, you're an anonymous troll making big claims on Usenet.

In other words, all you are proving yourself to be is a little person with a big obsession with "Will Dockery".

And so it goes.

:)

[EBG]

What big claims, that I get paid to perform? I suppose in your open-mic, karaoke world that's a big claim. I'm not here to be believe and don't really care, unlike you who posts on here begging for whatever scraps you can get. If I told you what I did during my "best" years, you'd still not believe it so there is really no point. There are working musicians, Dockery. You just don't know any other than the ones who live with their parents and claim to be "pros". A dime a dozen...

Eww..just when I thought Will could not be more despicable, there's this. I guess he a George Sulzbach level lowlife.

[Will Dockery]

You're an anonymous troll who named himself after "Emmett B Gulley".

You can claim anything here about would all mean just as little.

:)

Thanks Josh!

Pumping down a lot of coffee and headed back there now... our set, from 1pm to 2pm was the heat of the day, exhausting but no pleasure better than performing my sons with a little help from my friends.

:D

[EBG]

Except I never claimed to be Emmett and in fact said I was not. I am keeping his name alive and man, when he gets out of prison he will be coming here looking to kick the ass of anyone who disrespected his name. That be you, Dockery.

You and your stupid "OMG you're anonymous!" act. You are the only idiot who uses his real name on here because you are in love with yourself and seeing your own name. Classic NPD as was pointed out earlier.

[Will Dockery]

Yet it is you who is obviously obsessed with me and my name, since it is obviously the only thing you seem to be capable of thinking about.

[Brooke]

Oh, get over yourself. You would love nothing more than having him or anyone else obsessed with you, due to your obsession with yourself. The truth is you are some nut on the Internet that writes bad poetry that people enjoy poking fun at and you never fail to bite.

The last poem by Barry I read depicted me and George Sulzbach having gay sex, so I stopped reading his garbage.

You should probably drop the gay part which is redundant unless you are saying George is a female.

A poem about me and Sulzbach having gay sex I consider garbage, yes.

Your homoerotic mileage may vary, I grant you.

:)

[hierony...@gmail.com]

My mileage says that a poem that uses your names for characters
may not really be about you at all, but may use you symbolically, to
represent archetypes, and sex between consensual archetypes is
certainly better than being gang raped by little green Oompa Loompas.
