Bell Bottom Blues Poem by Paul Reed

Bell Bottom Blues

Rating: 5.0


I remember sitting in the dark
Listening as the needle clicked
Life hadn't yet made it's mark
We thought we had it licked;

Nothing had darkened hope's door
The times were an unlit fuse
All we wanted was to hear some more
Listen to 'Bell Bottom Blues';

The sounds of the night were our heroes
That split the darkness in two
Then the crackling needle swayed and rose
Drunk from that strange brew.
