This is only 3 days old. I made up the name of the musicans
1912 Ragtime Orchestra.
This was played at the restaurant
where we had our anniversary meal.
We talked back through the years
people, places,events -memories.
You could make a list of it.
This one was kind, this one not,
this place was cold, that one hot.
That cat was strange, this one is worse.
Memories, though are not just a list,
they have sounds, smells, odd details
and feelings, attached.
Like the recording was not just some songs.
You could feel it in the music.
Where sometimes they berated the Devil,
Sometimes loved with all their heart.
Swaggered, when they might have been cowed.
The needle recorded emotions behind words,
Life is not just a recipe, 2 cups this and 1 pinch that.
You can feel the feelings
And accept some comfort.

Perfect.
Now THAT I like.

And accept some comfort.
That's how I like the music I like.
Did you compose this poem in order to save your head?
I also love this:

well done, sir.

Mine tend to have dried sinews sticking out the back, or little lumps of congealed fat.
2 cups this and 1 pinch that.
An entire courtship encapsulated in seven words.
There is no saving this head, I need a new one.
Ah the joys of courtship, I couldn't figure how to make a rhyme for "Chinese Burns"
Did you compose this poem in order to save your head?
But where is Egil's skull now?
The skull was exceptionally large, and its weight was even more remarkable. It was ridged all over on the outside like a scallop shell.
Think of the potential for creative phrenology.
Oh sure, one little spike to the head and you are ready to discard the whole thing.
Nice.
laterbag is where you keep the stuff you'll want later.

Veiled healthcare bill reference?
That cat was strange, this one is worse.
Mrs. Cat is weird.
Mrs.Cat has issues but she doesn't chase her tail as much as she used to.

I believe that is why Johnny Thunders went with "Chinese Rocks".
After you catch it the first time, it loses much of its appeal.
Apparently there is a variety of shop where you can buy a replacement caudal appendage for her, and revive the thrill of the chase.
