- 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.
