Lol, Monty Python and Mad Magazine - my disformative years.

cue michaele jordana and the poles "cn tower" * , i been wondering out loud about that 900 miles an hour all my life
and the gravity of the question is what keeps me in the dark and
continuing to ask, wtf?.
 
roughly 1,000 miles per hour
The earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09053 seconds, called the sidereal period, and its circumference is roughly 40,075 kilometers. Thus, the surface of the earth at the equator moves at a speed of 460 meters per second--or roughly 1,000 miles per hour.Oct 26, 1998
 
How fast is the earth moving? - Scientific American
 
*this needs some explanation even for me
i always thought and misheard the lyric which i have been also saying out loud all my life
whenever spinning on this orb comes up
was "the world is turning and i gotta get down from the cn tower cn tower"
but it is really "whirling turning"
doesn't really change the meaning for me or misquoting it in Leonard's future

 
that is very good poetry thanks, kinda Cohenish
 
No wonder it's so dizzy
so hard to keep standing
on this so little ol' landing
where it's all so busy
no wonder i'm so dizzy
so much of the time

 
2 things come to mind
 
cut back on librarian duties
i don't know how u can be so prolific
without losing a few HRSI tiles
 
and, lately; i rediscovered sitting in the woods in the evening
before or after dinner listening hard for silence or critters
beer and a smoke of course
tunes the channel
to minimize static

Enough poetry for one night!, oh yeah ;):
Spring starts when a heartbeat's pounding
When the birds can be heard above the reckoning carts doing some final accounting

Lava flowing in Superfarmer's direction
He's been getting reprieve from the heat in the frozen food section, yeah

Don't tell me what the poets are doing
Don't tell me that they're talking tough
Don't tell me that they're anti-social
Somehow not anti-social enough, that's right

And porn speaks to it's splintered legions
To the pink amid the withered cornstalks in them winter regions, yeah
While aiming at the archetypal father
He said with such broad and tentative swipes why do you even bother?
Yeah

Don't tell me what the poets are doing
Those Himalayas of the mind
Don't tell me what the poet's been doing
In the long grasses over time

Don't tell me what the poets are doing
On the street and the epitome of vague
Don't tell me how the universe is altered
When you find out how he gets paid, alright


If there's nothing more that you need now
The lawn cut by bare breasted women
Beach bleached towels within reach for the women
Got to make it, that'll make it by swimming
