Happiness is me and my wife takin’ a selfie on my mother’s and father’s porch in early prefall
A place where I used to ride my bicycle up and down the blacktop one-ways of streets’ lights
On the boulevard or the avenue, sometimes a street or a road or a lane, I lived on them y’all
Deep on the northside of the city of bad smells, tar, bricks and woodwork, home of my fights.
It was always just as peculiar with a Chicago girl, that Jersey girl was the rose among tulips
We danced every day and every night because we were burstin’ with the energy of love lips
Peculiar to say the least and a godsend for the hungry and thirsty for the pills of my prose
Ground beef and pork just like the cannibals that eat their own, four legs OK, never 10 toes.
Punk rocks and rolled up stones putting on the Ritz for the righteous and the undeserving
Everybody is everybody and the lost have been found in the muck and mire of the gold ring
Married to the Singularity and to the mob of cellular differentiation, Cause of all effectiveness
Of course, it’s in the tea leaves and in the stars, below and above all that we know is and was.
Depending on the linguistic tricks of laying down the tricks of the trade, the whole Truth’s Id
Never, ever going to be happiness without sadness while you breathe this O2, H1 and a Force
Hydrogen, gas of the bloody azses left over from the Big Bang of Stuff, gas, liquid and corpse
Nowhere else we’ll ever be able to go other than right here and now, future shock, This is It!
Party would be on the patio where the barbecue caught on fire, Hibachi flames to the gods
Burned chops and wings for the family starving for the spoils of the welfare lines of hot rods
Uneducated and ignorant singers of the American dream, freedom ain’t free to the old lovers
Oh #ChiTown gods, rich spunk-suckin’ girls with no daddy, rubberbands flippin’ the cursors.
