|
Sam with the showing scalp flat top,
|
Particular about the point it made.
|
(I got it...)
|
Why, when I was knee-high to a grasshopper,
|
This black juice came out on a hard shelled chin.
|
And they called that 'tobacco juice'.
|
I used to fiddle with my back feet music for a black onyx.
|
My entire room absorbed every echo.
|
The music was... thud like.
|
The music was... thud like.
|
I usually played such things as rough-neck and thug.
|
Opaque melodies that would bug most people.
|
Music from the other side of the fence.
|
A black swan figurine lay on all color lily pads.
|
On a little conglomeration table of pressed black felt.
|
With same color shadows, in seamed knobbed knees, and what-nots.
|
The long hallway rolled out into oddball odd.
|
Beside the fly-pecked black doorway,
|
That looked closed on the tar-lattice street.
|
Up a wrought iron fire escape.
|
Rolled out a tiny wooden platform with dark, hard, dark rubber wheels.
|
Roll, skreek! Roll, skreek! Roll, skreek!
|
Sam with the showing scalp flat top,
|
Particular about the point it made.
|
|
Sam was a BASKET CASE!
|
A hardened dark ivory clip held... saleable everyday pencils.
|
I wish I had a pair 'o bongos!
|
Bongo Fury!
|
Bongo Fury!
|
Oowwwww! Bongo Fury!
|
(Boogie!)
|
Bongo Fury!
|
Bongo Fury...
|
Bongo Fury...
