Dig this, Daddy'O! Inspired by "Beat" poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti. |
Now dig this…..
Beat Chant I am chanting for the likes of Ron, George, and Bill to speak truthfully to adults rather than white lying to children and I am chanting for the television to explode, and for people to come back outside again and I am chanting for my fellow men to cease picking their noses and wiping their fingers above public urinals and I am chanting for the sun to stop reflecting off the Mellow Yellow can on the stream’s bottom and I am chanting for Louis Farrakhan to Hokey Pokey with the Grand Wizard and I am chanting for Bush and Hussein to tie a daisy chain and I am chanting for Rush Limbaugh to sport a Nehru jacket with love beads and I am chanting for blame to be less important and I am chanting for a new religion to replace Yuppieism and I am chanting for people to stop talking, and listen and I a chanting for cosmic consciousness but most of all, I am chanting for a monogamous nymphomaniac angel winged soul mate to deliver me from this wasteland. Dig it! Why not pen your own beat chant, man? Sing your soul! |
