Does it matter if I stop breathing and smiling inanely With thoughts that can cut veins ever so insanely? I don’t know how deep is the grand Canyon I have never been there, nor have I carried on Any desire to meet Stanley Livingstone alone In an African jungle worrying about his pension What are we doing wading through streams Of information that have no meaning but seems To occupy even the smallest minds inside heads, I’m steeped in memory but then that is my age Where memory takes the place of reality, on my page Anything goes and it usually does, and it returns But that is hardly my fault I was only looking to relearn A lesson no one had taught me so the laughing begins My head on the arms whilst sleeping in class wins My praise because the lessons are full of horse manure And teachers need to be culled for the biggest cure that humans have ever known, then we start again swimming every ocean climbing every mountain. There are dots all over my page where a universe sits And I can see the people inside, they want a real fix I smoked weed, spoke to the caterpillar on a mushroom he was half way to coming back again, so very soon but had missed every bus put out by Transport of London. I left my heart in an English Gardener said Christian Barnard I gave him the wrong blue pills and he swore revenge. Did I drive a Triumph Toledo in the raging cold snow I think about it but honestly I don’t really know, In café bars, sleazy saloons I feel the cheap perfume With smudged lipstick red faces and failing mascara The ladies of the night settled for the usual routine Even on days when they wanted to be never seen Walking that street devoid of humanity and so mean wrenched out their hearts, now it’s like a money machine. Does it matter that Mickey Mouse may have been a girl, Some say so, but then they have the tolerance of Goering, His sandwiches were wet because his wife liked tomatoes, His face looked like he’d eaten a ton of lemons though. Then I met this guy standing at a bus stop and he told me Buses I want are going in the opposite direction you see, He knew he was standing at the wrong bus stop and boasted about it, I thought he’d been watching the BBC that fucks up the brain rearranges logic and vomits garbage into my lap so that I stank of corrupted news, I could not listen to the smiling faces nor their biased views, I knew they suffered from withered cocks without juices But you try interviewing one of them, you need a banana Each time you try, for they ape reality without knowing. Allen Ginsberg was going to move in next door so I was told I said but he died years ago – I was trashed for being bold Never a Howl was heard so I knew he hadn’t moved near, It doesn't matter, really?
