—–”Merry Christmas From The Family” (The Christmas Duck)——-
Deep down in Colorado
way back in the mountains
beside a bubbling creek
long past the the doe and buck
There lives a stubborn lady
a woman to be avoided
a lass who could cause a ruckus
where misfortune runs amuck
Ten years to this Christmas day
at the holiday animal pageant
she put forth her finest lot
and showed a mangey duck
That witch, she cursed and swallowed
and brewed up all her demons
she brought out all her vices
and blessed her self with luck
And just as you would know it
from George to Ben Bernanke
she pinned on her blue ribbon
and departed like a shmuck
Yet justice is expected
it came what was deserved
the biggest of all her toes
collided with her truck
To the ground she crumpled
down among the refuse
in dog hair and ducky feathers
her hands deep in the muck
Reddened and enraged
she vanished into thin air
away like our last furry friend
into the night she snuck
Never to be seen again
that witch she is remembered
she’s in among the aspens
and sings of what she’s struck
Ten years this Christmas day
we deep in Colorado
take time out to remember
and listen for that Christmas Witches duck
ka QUACK!

—-Footwear Scenester—-
I got a pair of chuck taylors and some stripy socks
My toes stretch to seven when I’m cruising the blocks
My knickers pulled high, my flappers above the thigh
you may even think that I’m that magic guy.
But I’m not, but I’m not
I’m a scenester player, from the eighties or later.
When your looking at me, there’s only one thing you see.
and that’s my body, my sexy body.
I’m stepping in my loafers, my hush puppy floaters
My chords real casual, my hair real actual.
In long flowing threads, I’ll take you to bed
you may even think I’m crazy in the head.
But I’m not, … but I’m not
I’m a scenester player, from the eighties or later.
When your looking at me, there’s only one thing you see.
and that’s my body, my sexy body.-

pah, scenester player, you’re not real, your a fake
you think you just put it on and do what it takes?
it’s not what you’re wearing, it’s your attitude
you can’t change who you are based on your mood?
find yourself and to that be true,
go figure it out
and match That to your shoes.
—-
pah,
girl The American Dream
says I can be who I please
My treads say ladies, and so do my jeans.
I’m sitting low and tight, if you know what I mean
I keep my hair clean, I’m cool on the scene,
you may even think I’m a prepubescent teen.
But I’m not, … but I’m not
I’m a scenester player, from the eighties or later.
When your looking at me, there’s only one thing you see.
and that’s my body, my sexy body.
I’m kickin’ off my deckies, and I’m poppin the collar,
I love my stain-resistant kakis, and I tip top dollar
with my sleeves rolled up, and cuffs real high
you may even think I’m a ivy league guy.
But I’m not, … but I’m not
I’m a scenester player, from the eighties or later.
When your looking at me, there’s only one thing you see.
and that’s my body, my sexy body.

Snow Run
PPRR Fall Series, Race IV
Hey-O. The last race of the series and sure enough it’s snowing. Fortunately, The Springs is an environmentally excitable place that holds true to it’s mild climate. So, even though the wind was blowing and snow was falling, the brisk air became a welcome addition to the morning’s inclined and rocky run. Unfortunately, due to snowy conditions, about two thirds through the race it became evident, as we looked down the ridge below us, that we and the other individuals within our running pack where no longer on the correct trail. As we went up, up, up, the rest of the race were running down, far below us on flat paved road. It made the going even slower when we could see the water stops and photographers lining the trail far below. However, as we rounded the trail at the top of the hill, we were rewarded to find a pack of runners and a collection of orange streamers hanging from trees, blue arrows in the snow, and a generally well trodden path. However, to our dissatisfaction, young children and a collection of slow pokes filled the trail ahead of us. It was clear our times were going to be severely effected as it was probable that our distance was extended.
In the end, we ran about five and a half miles in fifty minutes, finishing behind about one hundred and twenty other individuals. Depressing. But, hey, at least the views were spectacular.
Today’s Results
# 164 overall. # 19/22 in my age group, shux
Series Results
# 68 overall, # 7/10 in my age group. Damn.
I guess, now I know. As Bernie says.. “good for you, no matter what.”

Easy 10 Mile Sunday Run
Staying ready for the Colorado Road Runners Fall Series run, Christopher, Bernie, Kira, Anna, Holly, and I set out for a comfortable 10 mile (optional) run this Sunday evening through and along the SantaFe trail which winds north to south along the foot hills. This particular run took us north out of the city an on to Air Force Academy land, though our only indicator was the sign that told us so.
Of course, now I’m working on a case of hip inflammation. So it’s ice and rest for a bit again.
