A Free jazz poem for Joan Baez
It Feels as If I knew You
In a Past Life,
You Could have Been My Sister,
Enemy, Lover, MOTHER, Girlfriend,

Witnessing the Tomato & Bullfights
Through the Eyes of a Drugged

Summer Night walking A Radio

The Garden of Eden!
The Black Hooded Executioners
Shiney Axe!
At the Haunted Tower of London,
Concretizing Liquid?
WET LEATHER!
Our Katabasis-
......Wordless Poems!
Us Having Blonde Hair & Blue Eyes,
While Living In Helsingborg, SWEDEN!
The Torture Chambers of Venice?
& The Middle East!
Us Devouring Bootlegged Liquor,
Gnawing Hallucinogenic Roots, & Berries!
Beaming Up
To an Inaccessible Land of Bergelmirs, Asuras,
Oceanids & Fairys!
While Picnic-ing in Central Park New York,
In the 1320's,
Hiding From The 'Pork',
Moments of Realization,
