Default Thumbnail Where’s the Captain’s song?

There’s a song in the Captain’s purse I just gotta find it before she snatches my hands away I just gotta find it There’s a wind in the Captain’s purse I just gotta find it before she orders my hands to shore I just gotta find it There’s a smile in the Captain’s sway I just gotta find it before she makes me walk the board I just gotta find it on the planks, in the galleys, you’ll know you’ll...

Default Thumbnail Pancho wakes

Pancho, in spite of himself was forced out of his reveries: grilling foods & fermenting milk skin pop popping gurgling of a baby pig on the spit apple pies and praline ice cream flambé if you please … woken up by a large growl an intestinal brawl a lament from his sleep from somewhere deep inside his bowels! Pancho was hungry for breakfast. copyright 2009 © F.K. Needles — all rights...

Default Thumbnail Sketches of Pancho

1 Buried perhaps? In a shallow grave or a not so shallow one underneath a slab of concrete? Or perhaps lost, in a grotto, a hole someplace far away with stalagmites?

Default Thumbnail Beer Songs For The Lonely

“Obviously a book meant to read while you’re drinking beer, but Needles’ poetry is redolent of Paris, red wine and camembert bien fait. For me it conjures long conversations in Parisian apartments, over plates of roasted turkey legs, garlic and sweet potato soup…Endless rows of empty wine bottles and endless plans to buy more over steak and eggs in the raw mornings..If you love...

Default Thumbnail Thanks To Sonny’s Vintage Music and Clothing Store

The staff at Sonny’s Vintage Music and Clothing store have sold more copies of both “Neurotica” by Elva Maxine Beach, and “Beer Songs for the Lonely,” by F.K. Needles, than anybody else in town. They can barely keep the books on their shelves. If they keep up at this pace, I’m going to have to print a lot more books! We, here at New Belleville, are HUGE fans of Sonny’s...
