30 September 2011

    • The pines along highway 59
    • stretch high through Mississippi
    • and on thru Louisiana too,
    • again on Texas 105,
    • we're driving by it drier,
    • a little higher from the ground,
    • the sky a beveled crown
    • that keeps us feeling still,
    • kicked back on the window sill,
    • I got the feeling I've seen
    • this place before, In Bedford,
    • in Beaumont, In Tallahala-
    • Cunt Shop, we forgot
    • we are still in College Park,
    • slipping quick into the stark
    • flatness of record drought
    • weather and whether or not
    • we bust a flat tire, we push
    • off the tired and fly
    • a second wind, a third one too,
    • on thru Louisiana too, 
    • again on Texas 105
    • we're feeling fine,
    • reminded of the time we had
    • a time and this time
    • we keep on laughing
    • back the watch an hour
    • for the fuel from Sour Lake
    • that bakes us like a biscuit,
    • that bigger Texas sun,
    • fed on steak and greens
    • and come the oil rigs
    • all craning necks
    • thru the rust, making dust
    • out of our lust to push on thru
    • the Mississippi pines
    • down highway 59,
    • stretch sun salutation
    • Louisiana mossy fornication
    • and sing a drier tune
    • to carry us thru the Texas 105.
