Just two worlds talking
Just two worlds talking
(Image by John Hawkins)
  Details   DMCA

the world is chock full of beautiful minds

who want to deal only in elegance

aye! committed firmamentarians

jazz-fab starry-eyed antiquarians

to the lost music of the spheres they dance

in a distant speakeasy, kinds to kinds

unfortch, that's more than balanced out by dross

unflushed swirling revolutionaries

of the right and left in each hemisphere

the stench of poopheads -- get me outta here! --

paunchy pontificates on Blackberries

encrypted mean guy screeds about the boss

O the turds who scratch their fingernails down

gay crepuscular blackboards. O the sound!
