I was born to hustle roses down the avenues of the dead
River gut, girl river damn drown
People going in and out of books and doors and graves
People dressed in pink getting haircuts and tired and dogs and Vivaldi
You missed a cat argument
The grey was tired, mad, flipping tail
And he monkeyed with the black one who didn't want to be bothered
And then the black one chased the grey one, pawed it once
The grey one said, "Yaaow!"
Ran away, stopped, scratched its ear, flipped it astraw
Popped in the air and ran off, defeated and planning
As a white one, another one, ran along the other side of the fence chasing a grasshopper
Somebody shot Mr. Kennedy
The best way to explain the meaning of concourse is to forget all about it or any meaning it, all
Is just something that grows or does not grow, lives a while, and dies a long time, life is weak
The rope around a man's neck is stronger than the man because it does not suffer
It does also not listen to Brahms, but Brahms can get to be a bore and even suffering when you are locked in a cage with sticks, almost forever
I remember my old man rage because I did not sweat when I mowed his lawn twice over while the lucky guys played football or jacked off in the garage
He threw a two by four at the back of one of my legs, the left one
I have a blood vessel that juts out an inch there now and I picked up the log, threw it into his beautiful roses and limped around and finished the lawn not sweating and twenty-five years later I buried him
He cost me a grand, he was stronger than I was
I see the river now, I see the river now
Grass fish limping through, milk blue
She's taking off her stockings, she's beginning to cry
She looks at me, she's crying, "My car needs two new front tires"
