33rd Chorus

A vast cavern, huh?
I stop & jump to other field
And you wander around
Like Jap prisoners
In Salt Lake Cities
Under San Francisco’s
Sewage disaster.
“An explorer of souls
and cities –“
“A lowdown junkey” –
“Who has discovered
that the essence of life
is found only in the poppy plant

with the help of odium
the addict explorers
           the world anew
and creates a world
           in his own image
with the help of Madame
           Poppy
I’m an idealist
     who has outgrown
        my idealism
I have nothing to do
     the rest of my life
        but do it
        and the rest of my life
        to do it”
