Parent message is 463820
from cali california
long blonde hair
and a dazzling smile
that wounded air
and everyone who saw him
stopped to stare

ever hear of KISS?
he asked me back in 1973
no, no, nope, my brother and i shook
our unknowing and slow midwestern heads

he wore so cool
his threads
and his aviator shades
elephant pants
and a t-shirt smiling che

where are you greg?
why did you stop that night?
just to help some guy fix a flat
you never saw the drunk
roaring and plowing
and now you’re gone

where are you now, greg
i miss your ass
you blonde and blue eyed
star-KISSed fool
