[I]

|
Do you know the warm progress under the stars?
|
Do you know we exist?
|
Have you forgotten the keys to the Kingdom?
|
Have you been borne yet & are you alive?
|
Let's reinvent the gods, all the myths of the ages
|
Celebrate symbols from deep elder forests
|
[Have you forgotten the lessons of the ancient war]
|
We need great golden copulations
|
The fathers are cackling in trees of the forest
|
Our mother is dead in the sea
|
Do you know we are being led to slaughters by placid admirals
|
& that fat slow generals are getting obscene on young blood
|
Do you know we are ruled by T.V.
|
The moon is a dry blood beast
|
Guerilla bands are rolling numbers in the next block of green vine
|
Amassing for warfare on innocent herdsmen who are just dying
|
O great creator of being grant us one more hour to perform our art & perfect our lives
|
The moths & atheists are doubly divine & dying
|
We live, we die & death not ends it
|
Journey we more into the Nightmare
|
Cling to life our passion'd flower
|
Cling to cunts & cocks of despair
|
We got our final vision by clap
|
Columbus' groin got filled w/ green death
|
(I touched her thigh & death smiled)
|
We have assembled inside this ancient & insane theatre
|
To propagate our lust for life & flee the swarming wisdom of the streets
|
The barns are stormed
|
The windows kept & only one of all the rest
|
To dance & save us
|
W/ the divine mockery of words
|
Music inflames temperament
|
(When the true King's murderers are allowed to roam free a 1000 magicians arise in the land)
|
Where are the feasts
|
We were promised
|
Where is the wine
|
The New Wine
|
(dying on the vine)
|
Resident mockery give us an hour for magic
|
We of the purple glove
|
We of the starling flight & velvet hour
|
We of arabic pleasure's breed
|
We of sundome & the night
|
Give us a creed
|
To believe
|
A night of Lust
|
Give us trust in
|
The Night
|
Give of color
|
Hundred hues
|
A rich Mandala
|
For me & you & for your silky pillowed house
|
A head, wisdom & a bed
|
Troubled decree
|
Resident mockery
|
Has claimed thee
|
We used to believe in the good old days
|
We still receive In little ways
|
The Things of Kindness & unsporting brow
|
Forget & allow
|
Did you know freedom exists in a school book
|
Did you know madmen are running our prison
|
W/in a jail, w/in a gaol, w/in a white free protestant
|
Maelstrom
|
We're perched headlong
|
On the edge of boredom
|
We're reaching for death
|
On the end of a candle
|
We're trying for something
|
That's already found us
|
We can invent Kingdoms of our own
|
Grand purple thrones, those chairs of lust
|
& love we must, in beds of rust
|
Steel doors lock in prisoner's screams
|
& muzak, AM, rocks their dreams
|
No black men's pride to hoist the beams
|
While mocking angels sift what seems
|
To be a collage of magazine dust
|
Scratched on foreheads of walls of trust
|
This is just jail for those who must
|
Get up in the morning & fight for such unusable standards
|
While weeping maidens show-off penury & pout ravings for a mad staff
|
Wow, I'm sick of doubt
|
Live in the light of certain
|
South
|
Cruel bindings
|
The servants have the power dog-men & their mean women
|
Pulling poor blankets over our sailors
|
(& where were you in our lean hour)
|
Milking your moustache?
|
Or grinding a flower?
|
I'm sick of dour faces
|
Staring at me from the T.V.
|
Tower. I want roses in my garden bower; dig?
|
Royal babies, rubies must now replace aborted
|
Strangers in the mud
|
These mutants, blood-meal
|
For the plant that's plowed
|
They are waiting to take us into the severed garden
|
Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful
|
Comes death on strange hour
|
Unannounced, unplanned for like a scaring over-friendly guest you've brought to bed
|
Death makes angels of us all & gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as raven's claws
|
No more money, no more fancy dress
|
This other Kingdom seems by far the best until its other jaw reveals incest & loose obedience to a vegetable law
|
I will not go
|
Prefer a Feast of Friends
|
To the Giant family
|
|

Great screaming Christ

Upsy-daisy

Lazy Mary will get you up upon a Sunday morning
