He's known to us all as the famous Ron Tello
hid up in the fringe of Nevada.
Ensconced in his den buried deep in Montello,
a drummer! (Is life any harder?)
He will make an impression, you'll never forget,
a single post's all that it takes
and you'll break out in laughter or maybe in sweat
- depends on the sense that he makes.
Inscrutable sometimes and often confusing,
engaging this champion of chaff
is not for the shy - or you’ll find yourself musing
“Do I cry now or do I just laugh?”
His musical passion is clearly percussion,
- not woodwind, nor brass, nor of song.
But speak of his drums and amid the discussion
he’ll tell you: “Now THIS is a Gong!”
A practical hand finds him pimping his ride
(the parts list alone is a tome)
But should ills befall his most joyous new pride,
he picks up and carries it home.
Though weather is usually safe to discuss
(Wendover is often on show)
A wintry Christmas will just cause him to cuss
“You can keep all your ice and your snow!”
A thoughtful, but quick wit, he often is found
twixt notions (and liable to switch)
What? Serious or mirthful or flippant or sound?
Just tell me now, PLEASE - Which is which???
