Aqua Grove
A Color-Based Poem
A place to pray
a child's playground.
Like a chrysocolla plantation
bellflowers harvest on hyndrangea leaf towers.
Sky high turquoise shrubs
touching the powder teal vapors.
Like breathing figures, smelling the sour cedarwood haze
they reach for the robin egg morning stars.
Long and spiky like grass
the lands locks grow on the fell.
The shade of blue, the soft color of cyan
where dwarf azure angelicas bloom like blue flags.
The tranquil moonstone Eastertide
by the dewy apatite garden.
Fluorite bubbles float like ocean stones
and agate lily pads pose like water goddesses.
A hushed houseless cottage
where maya gossamers dance and play.
Blueberry crops and currant evergreens
to eat and feast like going on a picnic.

Goldfish
In my mind, I envision a glass bubble filled with cool aqua water and tangerine swimmers- goldfish with rosy lips and black bulgy eyes. Like music to my ears, I listen to the calm bubbles blow and pop. It's like a song that is sung underwater. The goldfish run around in the seaweed garden like children playing hide and seek.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.
