Summer love

Lorenz

Dallas ,your scarlet

floods Jacky's dress,

and a trip to hell 

has to be paid for in verdigris .

that's the price for a home under 

the sun of  Arlington ...

the kids of Manhattan  

have a tea with the che ,

Hendrix smokes a pot with Satan ,

graceful death jump  Janis ! 

Patchouli -scented birdies 

offer the undecency 

of their dancing  nipples 

to bearded guys that made 

the towers of power  laugh ...

Baal's devotees are still 

in gesticulations ,

and the white  house 

 turns into a barbed doll  whirl ..

    ''Ich bin ein Praliner ! ''

I am not ready to climb 

that damn  mountain 

along the path laid out 

by my needy  elders ,

Waterloo dreary  plain...

My teddy bored on the road 

 to Morrison ...

Would I stil be in this world at 27  ?
