My Magical Beat Poem With Stolen Black Music (Free verse) by horus8
Oh beat
Oh boot
Oh beat, Oh beat
Oh beat, Oh boot
Oh bea-boo-ta
I am fluffy and beat with smoke
in my seat, Bermuda
I am scruffy goatee
with flaming pee-pee
Bermuda..
A Poe eat,
a buttered up loaf of meat
Ah yeah, eedeelee-o
The guy that invented granola -- though
hip and high-strung from fisting in Fallon, NV.
Is not madda at Beat, than he is of the day
he invented granola. Because that was the day
every saddled weasel in the county came along
and turned the simple pure truth of granola
into a magical bullshit breakfast for kids
called 'Happy Flakes' and 'Spiffy Pops'.
Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg sat at
the knee of Burroughs the mentor and said
"Nothing Beats sittin' around listening to this
old fag talk about images and fucking and
drugs". Because they knew inevitably
William would hit the apple, not the wife.
And that everyone would be glorious,
and utterly wasted on a generation that
amounted to absolute squat.
And as the nostalgia wears off, and I get sick
of talking about landmarks, and my mommy, and
the Negroes, and politics and how the Catholics are so
far up my ass I'm spitting up rosaries. I will listen
long and tilted into the tight dark pink night(y)
to the sound of the hobo breaking wind and I will go,
"That was beat poetry"
As I crack open an old Milwaukee, and wait
to get old, so that I might indeed kick the dog
off the porch, and whistle some demented shit
to the scarecrows, and the plump bunnies
As my friends surround me clad in Nike and
sponsored by Nebutal, and their Ex-wives
REAL POETS, The BEATIEST, I will think
to myself Oh Jack, Oh Jack, why did you go
on the road, sending me on the road, and my
friends on the road -- to find that all roads end
right back Jack, right smack dab back Jack
at the sound of it all beating itself to death
I want nothing more, but in the end to
be lynched by a filthy mob of illiterate
baboons and sodomized with beets
and poetry, until my ass flares like
Uranus, and then, and only then
will I concede that it was all a
filthy lie to keep your minds
in check by the man and his
mennies with the hair parted
on the right side in news caster
blue, selling you tomorrow.
