When the sweet meets the not so sweet,
some drama is to be expected.
– Beaudraux Liam
But was Jane
all that sweet –
coming
from Lou Reed?
And Martha L.,
created by Country Joe –
did he know her well
to have an opinion so low?

Nonsensical musings about sweet & not so sweet, making use of my vast but diffuse memory of rock’n roll. For Sunday Scribblings and ‘sweet.’
For those unfamiliar with the songs alluded to:
The Velvet Underground playing Sweet Jane
And Country Joe and the Fish playing Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine
Nobody's all sweet I guess..or all bad..but that doesn't make for good music! Jae
ReplyDeleteI didn't get the allusions, not being into that scene, but I loved the first quote!
