Small Flowers Crack Concrete

[Thurston]

Small flowers crack concrete

Narcotic squads sweep thru poet dens

Spilling coffe grabbing 15 yr old runaway girls

By frazzled ponytailed hair + tossing them

Into backseats of cop cars

The narcs beat the bearded oracles

Replacing tantric love with

Complete violence



Lights + mirrors dot the city

Inkstained hippies w/ boxed lunch + marijuana

Mystery plays of shit and nothingness

Blessed by colors from a black hat



Blue lights search thru weeds

Searching for the heart of d.a.levy

And the mind he left behind



What didjoo expect? another mystic wreck?

Thats whatchoo got crawling in yr panic net

Whatdidjoo bring me? not a goddamn thing yet

+ whatdidjoo leave me? another tombstone dream yeh

O salacious mansion, the boys held for ransom

Didja see where he's gone? the blasted summers dawn

Fucked up in cleveland fucked up in cleveland

Short flight to nothing heavens up to something heavens up to something

Levys up to something levys up to something



Death poems for the living gods of america

Plastic saxophones bleat, bleed for nothing, nada

Cops crashing thru doors infuriated by silver charms

Of suburban smoke

At war with patches of red dirt glitter

And bluejean fucking

+ protest
