Don't look back
Those dreams
Of
Denver
Are
Getting
Fierce
Dim
Ah
Man
It's
Time
Time
Time
Time
You know
We
Both
Gotta
Blow
Blow blow blow
No no no
Yes
I'm
Afraid
Scared
Petrified
Terrified
God damn it
Man
We're
HittinThe End
Coast to coast
Gasoline defiance
Jazz fumed
With the radio on
In love with the modern world
Always with the radio on
Beaming 24 Dean
Yappin yappin yappin
Jaw chewing
Non stop neon
Can't catch us
Can't catch us
We're on the road
We're on the road
The
Wide
Open
Road
Hurtling
Towards
The
Inevitable
End
But we out ran them all.
All.
Every last one of them
Didn't we Jack!
Showering their murderous Korean piety
In reefer brake squeal exhaust
The dreams
We dreamed
We lit
Alight
Dash dial guzzling
Bright
Hep Cat
Night
Zoooom zoooom
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oooh shit
Feds on our tail
Time to bail
The boat to Tangier
The first whiff of fear
So
Farewell
Jack
Farewell
Kerouac
We've
Just
Run
Right
Outta
Right

Great stuff, Kevin. Thanks. I'm going to read this at the Kerouac night tomorrow. If there's a rapturous reception I shall, of course, pass it off as my own
ReplyDeleteHave fun. Good to know someone may get something out of it. K
