To live and die on that land
Breathe the soil-soaked air
The dissipating scent of tobacco
Newport Menthols
Degrees in arts and sciences
Silly things of the past
All part of an irrelevant future
College Boy
Hands dirtied and hardened with labor
A Man's Labor
A blue collar job
Real Work
To live in the paintings of John Constable
Autumn in the New England country side
And the ambiance of Thoreau
True Romance
Pink octopuses ride by
Shopping carts race through
The mind's eye is plastic
Paper Oceans
To breathe the air of Jupiter
Inhale the gas
Get high on the humidity
American Wang
Cut the hair
And straighten out
Nothing else to do
Family Values
To look to the future
Prepare to move on
For the sake of self
Life's Ahead

ReplyDeleteHaving just revisited this post from so long ago, I see it anew. I see the splendorous phallus of PoMo truly engorge. I hope to see more of this on the future Senate floor! Cheers!
