Water Tank Town by Brian Gaynor

Water Tank Town by

An homage to the great songwriter Tom Russell, including a verse in The Pugilist at 59:

The harder we love, the harder we fall
It’s cauliflower hearts and old medicine balls
And back street affairs in all the water tank towns
Well, there’s a mighty thin line between a heavyweight champ and a used up old clown.

About Brian Gaynor

Long an avid admirer of artistic beauty, I have only recently embarked on the process of creating art. It is a passion, indeed, and one that provides nourishment for the soul.

Thank you very much for the visit, and I hope you enjoy the final product as much as I have enjoyed the creative process.
