feather wreckin i squawk

23 years of goose pluckin

fly whatever i want to fly

south b52 north virgin air

i so full jello i so high dharma

religious as hell

i so serene bird when the

yellow in the moon slide

down to the bottom like

it couldnt fight off dream or

some boy threw moon melon

with face like skeleton

♪♫ and i just cant seem to get my feet on the ground ♫♪

high with the blanksta

smokin and leanin

heavy drug addiction

grandmother dead didnt know the bitch

dad freaks out in peruvian graveyard

mom freak out all the time

dad hits heavy with extension cord

chopped me on the saw horse and years

later i sing narcorridos with the double pint

♪♫ and i just cant seem to get my feet on the ground ♫♪

moon melon sky i did not ask to be so crazy or

for dirty laundry and dilate eye starin back but

whenever i look its skinnier and dont wanna fly

and that is why i feather pluck and flock with

the goose gang that try all sort of skittles

and that is why all day february you cant find me

it is why i am so fond of you

it is why i tar and feather the dreamboats that sail

i love the goose gang lord know love it all but still

fly down where the earth

is dark and also on fire

"you know people die doing that kinda shit right?"

♪♫ why you think i do it babaaaaay? ♫♪

X----I

february drop top

mustang flutter by

too cold for a valentine

who lines up to come

to the castle keep

where i keep all the

marks tools and lizards

what's different about this room

when ive been snoozing by myself

in a whole bunch of other ones

i want uptown

i want corner

all solo

i want a dream to crawl out,

a roach in the lo mein box

never written a love poem because

it never leaves a trace on my body

the thing is all about delicacy

MOTORCYCLE GUY #1:
   Hey, Prez, have we got news for you...
Hey, have we got work for you...We gotta guy for you to duel...

MOTORCYCLE GUY #1:    (To Sweetback) You're black, man...

   What's it gonna be? ... Wrestlin'?

   *The chief swaggers over to a big bike and lifts it off the ground. The bikers

gasp and whistle in awe and encouragement*

  GANG:   Hey, how about knives?

  Ha ha! 

 GANG:

    Come on, man, your choice -- what's it gonna    be? Huh? What's it gonna be, man?

*The chief takes off her goggles and helmet -- yes, the chief is a woman. 

A white woman. With long, long red hair. 

She looks at Sweetback. 

Sweetback looks at her*     

 SWEETBACK:   Fucking.

smithy in the floral sheets

you already knew i was going to

set something on fire in this room

and that is why the shade

is always kept down low

in a time past i lit myself on fire

for a plump german

named precious stones of joy

dropped over the dark edge

standin lookin down the shaft

damn you will never feel that

i'm sorry for the stones

i'm sorry for the pouch and

the pick ax

when i'm pannin in the stream

joy is mine its mine i put it in the bundle

wrapped it up like papoose you gotta get

your own you

my healing rocks in the pouch

i worry about holes and thorns on my hat

and sad leaks out the ground and gets your feet

but joy you dig for it and when you hit it its only yours

i want

joy joy joy please can you feel

multiple hallelujah

if i wasnt pannin in the stream with my midas fart

i would be in the sweat lodge with the jade emerald

lapiz lazuli

XVXXLLIIIIIJIJ

age is a comedy

life is a tragedy

both are good for a laugh

if you sit down mid-scene

keep an eye out for stools, ottomans

lazy boys and love seats

plop it on down and quit that crying

they that bothered you is likely to leave

i got emotional with an old man one day

i thought that i could confide, i

"...my first time having sex....."

"been round the block

have ya?

lost ya v-card and cried

like a bitch"

"today...im just thinking about

....the tree of life"

"hid what in ya sock what the fuck

sick fuck"

every time i think about that

i feel like a youth

a girl i know,

she was like this,

"old as sin in '98

spring chicken in '07"

baby grows younger every birthday

gets older on the holidays and leap years

and that is why i am fond of her

XXIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIO

beulah day beulah day

red black hair

beulah day beulah day

she almost there

red brown eyes

and river all piss

river all muck and

the river all muck

mom and dads dead

beulah drink presidents' punch

sleeping on the shore

suns sinking into dust

riding home alone

beulah birthday sucked
