From Memphis Through Mississippi To New Orleans.
We go through the darkness, again
Notching the light of the flower moon.
Scraping median jagged smooth 92.
Midnight shaking mountain goats
Strumming blue Mississippi sound
Fighting death in the cockpit.
UV rest-stop foglights
Flittering eyes slashing leaves
Abyssal calendar, dating void streams.
Antler gored chigger bush
Eating tires and road cones.
Killing Bambi with a stare.
I-40 tells Memphis to slow down.
And she isn't answering.
We're chasing the handicapped.
Wheelchair racing to Muddy Waters
With a flux capacitor
Jumping potholes
With a 9th street mugging.
Flickering Elvis, eye-rolls
Getting creamed by Waste Management
Riding as phantoms on fire.
Hickahala Creek devouring
The Senitobia bleed of Coldwater Marshes,
Saluting the strings moving through Como.
That deviled dog is back!
Strewn trash and refuse,
Chewing tires to Jackson.
Soybean pine eating ravines
Conceiving record spin thoughts
Moving eras in a pause.
Seeing the blues with steering hands.
Fuck your 10 and 2!
We like it 8 to 1.
Shifting lanes to even the odds.
Ebenezer at '91.
What up, Holmes?!
Little Red takes an axe through the woods,
Shredding solos under a delta pitchfork sun
550 miles, Barbeque daisy dukes &
Wildflowers scuffing tread—
And I would walk five-hundred more.
Big Black River.
Will the Dead Armadillo sustain the crane operator?
Hauling Hunter through Mississippi...
The Brookhaven livestock asylum
Gently reminds us to keep Mississippi beautiful
With 67,000 pieces of plastic on the road.
You can find Independence in a 1/2 mile
Trading glances with Cab Callaway.
Standing at a comedy show
Talking about how women want deeper dick
But you never hear a man scream for shallower pussy.
Four backpacks shuffle through the bar
In their Methican jig.
Machetes fly at Checkpoint Charlie's
While recovering from the sounds
On Frenchman Street.
Eleven prisoners escape from the penitentiary.
Two hide out at The Muses.
As I wave at one, the next morning
While everyone questions their whereabouts.
Buckle up, Alabama. Slow down Memphis!
