Garage Litany

Just a trifle while I sniffle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

send gibson into marshall
send fender into mesa boogie

direct line —
no pedals! screw pedals!

see what can happen
with just knobs and strings

with divebomb upstroke
downstroke pickrake slap

twist it up flame on
wake the damn neighbors

they’ve been asleep
long enough

tell them that the signal path of excess
leads to the roadhouse of wisdom

and god did not damn the guitar
no matter what they are yelling right now
