I CAN'T DO A THING ABOUT YOU






i can't do a thing about you
why you even try i don't know
isn't it all the same anyway
everything is equal to mc2
except my mind
which is completely adagio
with endless visions of
spastic plastic ecstatic
truth

no reason to do this or that
red riding hood is the wolf
and grandma is me and my big mouth
noisy heads exploding nowhere
i am about to fart

be careful not to bump into the universe
make sure your batteries are recharged
don't shine the light in my face
brush your teeth
goodnight

struggling in the middle of a page
to get clear of the fence
prisoner of peace
jailor of being
judge and jury of falsehood
sentence suspended
lessons ended



1975
