'Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does. ' - Allen Ginsberg

"... and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..." - Jack Kerouac On The Road
Janis Joplin - Hesitation Blues
Well, a nickel is a nickel, a dime is a dime
I need a new man, Lord I know I won't mind.
Tell me how long, dear, do I have to wait ?
Can I get you now, dear, must I hesitate ?
Well now, the eagle on the dollar says "In God we trust"
You say you won't obey me, you wanna see that dollar first
How long, dear, do I have to wait ?
Can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate ?
Lord, if the river was made of whiskey an' I was a duck,
I'd just swim to the bottom an' I'd never come up.
How long, dear, mm, do I have to wait ?
Why, can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate ?
Now there's rocks down in the ocean and there's fish in the sea,
I know you mean the whole world to me.
How long, dear, must I have to wait ?
Can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate ?
I got them Hesitation Stockings, I got them Hesitation Shoes,
Lord knows I got them Hesitation Blues.
Tell me, how long do I have to wait ?
Why, can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?

Experience fills her damaged wings Pain and pleasure bound in a sling The arm will heal, the bird will sing songs about the love she brings
she falls in love so easily she's good at keeping company rode my high all the way into space where the realm of chaos took its place
superheroes at the masses take a break from endless clashes
do we cry when a friend is lost? do we swim when the ship is tossed? how many can we save? and what about the rest? when do we fill the graves? when do we pass this test?
Forged a bond, tempered by steel Nevermind our mass appeal Stick with me I'll show you the ropes Tell me what my pen evokes Open my throat if I start to choke And forgive me if I misspoke
Now that you're flying again now that your time is well spent take a look down at the Earth and tell me what you think its worth The air up there is thin and clean far from the hum of mad machines that plot our ends in secret meetings While our lives resume repeating
Far from the murder of crows I found a hermit who knows where we come from and where we go while we wait for an encore after the show
