We thank the Heavens
the greatest sage
of America
is long dead
Were he still alive,
there is no way
we could have served
this bull donkey concept
to the starving
population

Miles Davis once said ≈
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing you can play on trumpet
that Louis Armstrong hasn't already played.
An authority on American Literature could say≈
There is nothing we can write
that Mark Twain hasn't already written about.
Oliverio will not dispute that statement
Deletebut refuses to believe Literature [or Art] is dead.
A great counter-example is a CBS Television crime series
entitled ELSBETH.
Every case she works on has been done to death
BUT she gives each episode a colorful and whimsical twist
that guarantees entertainment
