Farewell MouseyTongue

Memories: like the corner drugstores of my mind
Misty colored memory memories


Of the way we were

Scattered pictures
like tiny bubbles in the wine
Make me feel happy
Make me feel fine

Can it be all was so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line?
[or have lions rewritten it in thyme]
If we had to do it all again
Tell me Would we?
Might'n Couldn't have'n'd [actual southern modal construction] we?


Speed boats, coursing through the water spouts
Tangled fishing lines in kelp beds
may be too painful to forget
Here come some high notes now
Some Diva showboating
A shift from the minor to the major key and back again
Of the way we were
Of the wavy fur
God Speed MouseyTongue!
