DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?
Do you have what it takes to catch Kowalski
or to elude Lt. Frank Bullitt? They’re waiting
at www.lilgoat.com for you to give it your best
shot…
So come with your best shot or don’t
come at all because Bullitt and Vanishing Point
are here and in full effect to take no prisoners…
If you happen to be a cop you’ve better be on the
lookout for a white 1970 Dodge Challenger with
Colorado license plates OA5599, however, Kowalski
means no offense and nothing personal by leaving
you in the dusts. He’s just doing what he’s gotta’do.
So, in other words,
OPEN THE ROAD FOR KOWALSKI!!!
On the other hand, if you’re a bad guy with no morals,
a highland green 1968 Mustang GT fastback with
California plates JJZ-109 will be hot on your tail
from Columbus Street to take you down Taylor or
anywhere. Bad guys, you’ve gotta’ sweet 1968 Dodge Charger
but don’t waste his time because, Lt. Frank Bullitt just
plays it and calls it as he sees it, so don’t play him for
a sucka’ or a fool!!! Get the picture?
Then get right and
come on with it if you think you’ve got something…
THEY’RE WAITING FOR YOU

time…

A BREAK OR IN MOTION
Whether Kowalski is taking a cigarette
break or in motion through Nevada-
The Dodge Challenger’s
radio can really hear soul and Tracy Chapman
singing: “Give me one good reason” inspite of
all the trouble that Kowalski is already in-
Person to person, what time
is it? SuperSoul can feel the sunrise that
Kowalski doesn’t already know about…

TINTED ARE THE LINES
Tony Joe White- 1968 Torino
future illusions of Kowalski
drive along the wisdom road
with images and traces-
Rainy colors-
No flavor if it were sweet, but no rain
touches long curly hair-
Muddy green,
Johnny Taylor- black with a touch of
blue tint are the lines until Saturday
evening in the blues-
Pure middle of the
street obsession…

KOWALSKI’S IMAGE
A man in a white Challenger made
sense with any destiny stopsign–
From others who never knew
starting from the tracks seen two days

sun along the highway…
Nightfall echo from
taillights, I must go to see the darkest
ends vanish- just review to keep his
promise rock to the sun…..

PERFECT FOR A FILM
A borrowed song from the future-

quiet sounds-
Bells angels promises
Heart singing “Barracuda” while Kowalski’s
song illusion moves out in the speed of a
Dodge Challenger-
Headlights speed detailed
night and day illusions love of another world…

VANISHING POINT IMAGES
While Sugarloaf sings Green-Eyed Lady-
sunglasses amber- Kowalski-
The Guess Who sings “No Sugar Tonight”
and his Challenger can see amber white-
the purple sun before the
dusk firefall- speed mirrors can speak
shadows without a sound….

LET’S HIT THE STREETS
Kowalski 11:45 almost midnight,
sunglasses and a pistol-grip, let’s
hit the streets playin’ music-
Dodge Challenger
stalk the time… San-Francisco has an angels

Paint illusion of
a distance never seen again…

A HUSTLE TO A SONG OF VANISHING POINT
Curtis Mayfield and Kowalski on a straight away illusion-
1971- The song: “Where Do We Go From Here”…
Superfly is the song on the radio to hustle the police on a
pistol-grip allude with no violations of a sound-track ticket- allude
with music, go for a dip in the ravine…
Hustle send me a message to the Dodge Challenger- Kowalski
sure can fly and see… 1971 SuperSoul spiritual- all the movie
music knows the beginings to groove this song- hustle his pride,
he doesn’t stop….
Curtis Mayfield and Kowalski knows that the
clock of time with purity and speed has a mind of it’s own-
No guesses are wrong…
Jake has Kowalski’s fix-
Vanishing Point taillights- the clock is just a few minutes after
midnight to disappear…

GOING THROUGH THE TUNNEL
Saturday’s sunshine takes Kowalski through the tunnel
on the beat of “Sha-Na-Boom-Boom.”…
The Staples Singers
push him on “Heavy Makes You Happy”.
Spiritual Saturday
and sunshine, where are you going Kowalski?…Coming the
Vanishing Point, pleasing the angel that comes from another
place…

STRAIGHT AWAY
Left foot toe in and toe out- hand to fist glove,
bare-hand shift the pistol-grip… accelerate straight away
at the right time, straight way, while at the same time, say it’s
a joke but it’s not so mellow to dream gone straight away and take
a dip as too, The Steve Miller Band sings “Livin In The USA”…
Pistol-Grip, time to add one more song- somethin’
you should know- Love and unity… Kowalski straight borrow
some speed from the chopper-
440 Six-Pack, straight away
accelerator disappear to drag the chain on the the road
stopsign behind him- Just say the truth because, Lord knows,
the police can’t catch him….
