35 Oakfield Avenue, Freeport New York
Mailed buzz and heroin,
found post mortal thought
Poor man’s copyright, from 1965
Don’t open it, I said don’t open it
Creedmore state hospital, village green
Shock me, mock me, I don’t feel a thing
Queer leanings, hostile mood swings
Stomp my, my ostrich head,
I still don’t feel a thing
Poor man’s copyright, 1965
I don’t want to listen to that shit anymore
I don’t want to hear it
Don’t open it, I said don’t open it
Syracuse University, downtown New York
Tormented introspective, romantic poet
Delmore and Seymour, Bunnies gift
Shelley’s love, competing with this shit
Poor man’s copyright, from 1965
I said I don’t want to hear this stuff anymore
I don’t want it in my life
Poor man’s copyright, May 11, 1965
Primitive, warlocks,
falling like spikes from the skies
Don’t open it, I said don’t open itI said don’t open, I said don’t open, why would you open it
56 Ludlow Street, on the lower east side
Normal like a caveman, no drug fuelled high
Heroin and Venus, on a Harlem sidewalk
To pay the rent, to keep warm,
moreover just to score
Poor man’s copyright, 1965
I’m not going to listen to these things anymore
Poor man’s copyright, May 11, 1965
Primitive, warlocks,
falling like spikes from the skies
Poor man’s copyright, from 1965
Primitive, warlocks,
falling like spikes from the skies
Poor man’s copyright, May 11, 1965
Primitive, warlocks,
falling like spikes from the skies
