accident of our causes & Eidolons, Planned Careful in your Dreams & in my daylight Frenzies: failed Projections!

Our icy wills resolved in watery black ink’s translucent tears,

Love’s vapors are dissolved on seaboard’s clear noon open to the Sun

shining thru railroad windows on new-revealed faces, our own inner forms!”

I Lay Love on My Knee

I nurs’d love where he lay

I let love get away

I let love lie low

I let my love go

I let love go along

I knew love was strong

So I let love go stray

I told love go away

I called love come home

my tongue wasn’t dumb

I kissed love on the neck

& told love to come back

I told love come stay

Down by me love lay

I told love lie down

Love made a fine sound

I told love to Work

as musician or clerk

I sent love to the farm

He could do earth no harm

I told love get married

With children be harried

I said love settle down

with the worms in the ground

I told love have pity

Build me a good city

I taught love to sit

to sharpen his wit

I taught love to breathe

mindful of death

I showed love a straight spine

energetic as mine

I told love take it easy

Manners more breezy

Thoughts full of light

make love last all night

I kissed love on the brow

Where he lay like a cow

moaning and pleasured

his happy heart treasured

I kissed love’s own lips

I laid love on his hips

I kissed love on his breast

When he lay down to rest

I kissed love on his thigh

Up rose his cock high

I bid Love leave me now

rest my feverish brow

I’m sick love goodbye

I must close my eye

No love you’re not dead

Go find a new bed

for a day for a night

& come back for delight

after thought with new health

For all time is our wealth.

Stool Pigeon Blues

I was born in Wyoming, Cody is my home town

Got myself busted, the sheriff brought me down

The Feds hit my nose, I felt like a dirty Clown

I turned in my sister, just like they asked me to

I turned in my brother, I had to, wouldn’t you?

If they beat me again, I guess I’d turn you in too

Please don’t blame me, they had me for twenty years

An ounce of weed, they planted it in my ears

They found one seed, and watered it with my tears

I got A’s in highschool, smartest boy in class

Got laid at eleven, the sweetest piece of ass

They found us in bed smoking a stick of grass

Girl broke down crying, the Narcs liked her looks in the nude

Asked us for blowjobs, I told them that was too crude

Took us to jail & accused us of being lewd

Ten years for resisting arrest, ten years for a little joint

Ten years kid, beginning to get the point?

Feds want a big bust, let’s hear you sing oink oink!

Who do you know in highschool, how many’s dealing lids?

Who do you smoke with? We want the names of kids.

They’ll bust all our parents, unless Good God forbids!

I’m just a poor stoolie, got busted in Wyoming

From Cody, to Casper, to Riverton I will sing!

From Gillette to Powell a pigeon I’m on the wing.

Governor Governor Get me out of this fix!

President President decriminalize the sticks,

Out here in Wyoming, Sheriffs play dirty tricks.

Casper, April 16, 1977

Punk Rock Your My Big Crybaby

I’ll tell my deaf mother on you! Fall on the floor

and eat your grandmother’s diapers! Drums,

Whatta lotta Noise you want a Revolution?

Wanna Apocalypse? Blow up in Dynamite Sound?

I can’t get excited, Louder! Viciouser!

Fuck me in the ass! Suck me! Come in my ears!

I want those pink Abdominal bellybuttons!

Promise you’ll murder me in the gutter with Orgasms!

I’ll buy a ticket to your nightclub, I wanna get busted!

50 years old I wanna Go! with whips & chains & leather!

Spank me! Kiss me in the eye! Suck me all over

from Mabuhay Gardens to CBGB’s coast to coast

Skull to toe Gimme yr electric guitar naked,

Punk President, eat up the FBI w/ yr big mouth.

Mabuhay Gardens, May 1977

Love Replied

Love came up to me

& got down on his knee

& said I am here to serve
