A Cinderella pumpkin story A Cinderella pumpkin story with no glass slippers. A sky with a million stars and no big dipper. A moon that lights the sky and no first star to wish on. A pumpkin carriage ride and no girl to kiss on. Wreckless as it seems streaking across the sky. Smashing all my dreams on a pumpkin carriage ride. Wish on me while I burn in your face. Kiss on me and try to learn to swallow and not taste. More like a commet than a shooting star. I wonder... How long it takes to forget who you are.
Something's wrong (with the Bush Administration) Things aren't always what they seem. What appeared to be leaves blowing....up? And then falling from the sky. Actually was a whole flock of birds becoming unable to fly. But try and tell someone. I wrote this in 2001. I don't know if there was the "bird flu" yet but I know the Bush Gore vote thing was going on. I was working as a news director for a local radio station. I scribbled this down on a envelope i...

Today I submitted my Zero remix. Young Lainie selected the track after hearing it. I pointed out to her. My four poems on this song were written at a time when I was seeing her 7 years ago.(started with a blind date to a pumpkins show). It's unlike me to be head over heals over someone. I told her that's why she inspired me to write "of true Love". I could see the look in her sparkling blue eyes. She never knew. what do you know now young Lainie? Have I ever mentioned Lainie Sunshine is the first blue eyed girl I ever kissed? I wrote her a poem called "breakfast in bed" it's stratigically laid out on top of "goodnight". I also have my Cinderella pumpkin story poem at the end. I told young... (120 more letters)
It's to crazy not to blog. I wasn't sure of the exact date or even year. But it was the Adore Tour at St Andrews hall in the spring. A friend told me he had a friend who loved he pumpkins and would go to the show with me. Lainie Sunshine, thank you Jamie. A two hour drive to Detroit was all pumpkins talk and a plan to rush the stage. Being sunny and spring I couldn't help check out young Lainie's blue eyes. We got lost once but I found the way.

I use to do a morning show on the radio. 102.5 wmxe in hillsdale michigan. We were hot AC format playing best hits and best variety. I'd step out of format and play the pumpkins. "for my own personal consumption I'd tell my listeners. I turned them on to the pumpkins. I think it's what I was trying to do by putting my poems on top of pumpkins music. Some people put their nose up to the smashing pumpkins. Stero typing. Well I have something I think they'll listen to. E-mail them the link to bobjenkens remixes and see if they don't become a pumpkins fan. I've done 12 tracks using 29 of my poems over pumpkin music beds. For my own personal consumption. Mine and Zoe's, the other day at a dr... (561 more letters)
