Droopy in care
of the Beat
especially disengaged
and inscrutable,
…..not horse nihilism
……….not corn writer, Man.
Abominable nihilism
…..laugh of the creative
……….Beat death committed:
give the existentialist
…..the who junkie
……….commitment poetry.
I’m committed
…..I care for cannot Art
……….I actually am Beat,
I’m its time
…..I carried Burroughs’ laugh
……….and Satre’s engagement.
