obviously

by jhon baker

everything has worked out with the upload now.

everything is in place. and now it is about the words, thoughts, poems and a certified lunatic, lover, poet.

my brain has been cold for the past few days but is warming back to normal now. Yesterday the whites were pulsating and greens were were in tangent.

Suddenly I could taste the wood paneling after a fire but there were Vargas posters in the bathroom (Varga Girls) and an even lovelier woman seated at my table. All in all an interesting time – the waitress was begging for a larger tip from the get go – she was awkward and tired – badly put together, but it is easy to forgive those who have night jobs to supplement the day job which masks as a career.

I expect to be famous any minute now – So t-shirts may soon be available.

I want to see a bull gore a toreador

I want to see a bull gore a toreador.

I only ever pray when an
ambulance goes by
other wise,
I don’t believe.

it’s madness but
why can’t it be cancer?
something nice and clean?

I hope this made you spill your tea.

I have the importing blues

by jhon baker

Trying to import the old blog without any of the funky wingdings in the posts and such I have hit a snag. Deleting all the former posts and uploading the XML doesn’t seem to be working but maybe it is that I am impatient. My artistic medium was never with the computer as a tool, a means, or an end. While I am not a luddite I am still a little lost but working it out. Fear not my lack of readership – this too will be worked out in the end.

New around here

by jhon baker

This is my inaugural post on WordPress under the address willfulresemblance.com instead of the old standby – willfulresemblance.blogspot.com

I am unsatisfied with how the old blog downloaded with extra characters and all but we shall see what becomes of this in time.

for now there is a poem lurking in my head, somewhere…

 

 

small black fly praying

on white ceiling

casting a small shadow

of prayer

I am fairly certain that I became an artist for the pussy. I learned that when you successfully sell a show there is even more pussy. Getting girls to come into my studio (where there was a bed) was never a problem and then getting them naked was even easier. Tons of pussy in painting if you do it right.

When I got tired of the pussy I stopped painting and took up jazz for the ass it provided.

Poetry has never gotten me laid except by my wife and that is only a maybe. I think it could but I am not interested in that – only the poetry itself.

Playing guitar also never really got me laid – and these are the things I continue to do to this day – guitar and poetry – guitar less so and poetry more so.

Also Ukulele.
