shortened to "Rockin' roll." But nevertheless, it was meant to be.
Rock and roll is here to stay; it'll go down in history. But, I don't

RENDEZ-VOUS

A thread of thought,
Flung out against the night.
AI strand of cobweb,
That clings to the stars,
And shimmers down,
Into some solar mist ...
(A silver fish

in a murky stream.)
One thread of thought,
With a will almost its own,
Searching ...

Then somewhere in the curved
Sphere of space,
Another flashing strand
Wanders through the crystal void
Searching ...

Is a bittersweet
Rendez-vous,
Where the stars drip ice and fire.
Your thought and mine,
An ecstacy,
And a sigh echoing down the night ...
