but on the beach in Southern California
in the winter sunshine
diving for a frisbee in the wet sand
taking pictures of surfer dudes through my open window
fending off fiending pigeons intent on sharing my caramel apple
No it is most definitely Not just any Tuesday in January,
it is sweetness, it is beauty,
it is your soul smiling out from under the hood
even though the gas light is on and you're lost as hell,
and it is poetry to the tune of VROOMVROOOOM
past the waves crashing over and over
past the bar playing its last song
past the seafood bougainvillea boys laughter full moon hotel date-shakes mermaids palm trees
dream life highway
as the sleepy town turns off the christmas lights, and closes its eyes.
California dreamin' of new lives and adventures in '07...
