What Is The Difference Between A Full Head Of

Getaway All Along The Watchtower November

Christ! as we were ridiculous and I
Cloud
as they followed the van of the City mortuary
... you would have enjoyed it, damn it! ...

us on the ring to change the spark plug dirty
and your coffin mouse-gray cast
in the cemetery of Prima Porta
... you would have enjoyed it, damn it!
... as you have fun rocking
to hitchhike on the Colombo
to steal a day of despair

and slam it on the beach ...
Capocotta.
... confused ... and I among others
throwing their towels on the color of happiness


fantasy ... you and me ... the night in the wagon train ...

to taste the salt on his lips,
to scandalize those faces
imbolsite papier-mache by drowsiness,
... and me ... to invent
balancing on the tight rope of shame
... but with the mind already closed
in that room. What nonsense that

deaths walled skyscraper behind those marble
of withered flowers and forgotten names.
you leave between the yellow chrysanthemums
stolen from your neighbor
an unfortunate smell of wax and rotted flowers ...
went to kicking off a Pepsi

and singing All along the watch tower ...

sang strong not to cry,
perhaps
.. I did not cry ... but ...
once back in that room,
I spent the night at the window all night watching

of Marlboro Light smoke that burned my eyes

and slow the flow of wagons.
