                                                                   by The Troggs . . you make everything groovy


Wild Thing started up over the stores PA system music to sooth the savage consumerstrike a chord  influence their buying
        On the other hand he cautioned if they dont like a song that could affect their purchases too
Would you quit? you’re always coming from the dark side.

Dark side  Man thats called realitySocrates examined life I understand Marketing prefers their bright blinding lightonly awful bugs creep in the darknessthats why their fine print is so very very fine unintelligible   

he knew music affected his work performance although he was impervious to bad songssongs he didnt like  he held that growing up in a house of twelve desensitised him to external influencesenabled him to literally  switch his attention Off    literally  as if it were a physical On/Off switch
                                                                    he went to give blood and talking with the phlebotomist they got on a jag of those who do not know history are doomed to repeated it

she said politicians who didnt know history were the worst

Youah  referring to someone in particular   

she didnt even look up from spinning his blood for iron contentYeah, that asshole who was elected president by people who also don’t know their history; or world history.

My nephews fiancée told me in conversation when it turned politicalturned towards historical precedence that my problemyour problem  is that were living in the past  I tried to suggest to her that where we are today has been like climbing a ladder if we didnt step on earlier rungs we wouldnt be where we are now 

she replied I ought to try living in the present
                                               Nuts to her she said as she placed the blood pressure cuff on his arm


Oh, that’s not good. I think I got you excited, your blood pressure is high, too high to accept a donation. Do you think you can relax? then we can try again.

Yahsure 

Here we go

he closed his eyes he went to his On/Off switch he threw it Off 
                                                                   thenghostly out of a submerged cloaked milling darkness he visualized a stone ringed yelloworangeblue campfire the sound of a creek tinkling behind him as he leaned against a stone smoking a pipe the evening sky purpled in the west over a distance snowcapped blue mountain range exhaling his breath swirledcompeted with the aromatic smoke he was wrapped in a wellworn buffalo robe not too far off he heard his horse neighits voice dancing with the softtumbling creekwater


Awrightbaby Lets give it another shot he saidhis eyes still closed

the cuff tightened slowly loosened   


                                     Well I’ll be she said that was amazing. You’re easily within range now.

Good Im an excitable boy but I can take it down if need bethough I dont much care to

I can’t say I’ve seen someone do that as quickly as you just did. That was crazy.

Not so crazy a lot of practise I came from a big family in a small house

she laughed I wouldn’t know about that, I’m the oldest of one.

The youngest too

Perhaps, but I prefer being the eldest.




Wild Thing
               you make my heart sing  the song always inspired himmade him smile shake itshake it wild thing

he hopedimagined everyone had their wild thing actually he imagined everyone had wild things were faceted not one singular thing was all things culture could push backreligion definitely did but he had taste buds in his mouth that distinguished varying flavours sweetnesses bitterness  too bad culture and religion often had their heads up their ass  what did that taste like what did that smell like he didnt want to know

wild thing  you make my heart sing     you make everything  groovy
                                                                          and in that momentunder the song walked incaught his eye definitely  a wild thing   goldenhaired greeneyed fit Hispanic  maybe South American

from behind the cash register he stopped her with his welcome Howsit going kiddo

she stopped in her tracks a good sign Kiddo? Like Bill says in Kill Bill?

Actually I own it Tarantino stole it and put it in Carradines mouth You dig Tarantino Pulp Fiction

I do, I do she was distracted but if I keep talking to you I’m going to forget what I came in for.

I can help you remember I can help you forget Thats what I do

she laughed she didnt cover her mouth with her hand was relaxed natural It’s a delicious readymade drink by Jose Cuervo, Paloma.

BAM Paloma Latin Dove Peaceful  A female given nameyou could be a Paloma  You got the look

Ohgoodness, you don’t have a line, you have lines.

he laughed Im a thirsty spider Gotta spin em or I go hungry And who wants to go hungry

That’s, that’s a fair question.

Follow me then Ill follow you back if you dont need anything else

Ill need salt, Tajin, if you have it, and a lime.

Have limes up front in the cooler I can escort you to the Tajin too

Escort?

Escortyes Id be your cohort consort accomplice partner in crimebe what they may

You think I’m a criminal?

I think itd be criminal if you werent Like I saidan I really dont say it often  you got the look  I approve  he turned back towards hercaught her attention  pointed up  The music he said  Wild thing  I think you move me   but Iwanna know for sure  he talked over Come on an hold me tight  you move meHappy Reggae Friday  then paused again as the Troggs sang Wild thing  you make my heart sing


it was one of those delectable moments  either to be had  or let go to memory  



ball was in their courts
he was trying to set the table though they had chemistry
