R. Bremner
Kerouac dream #3
An umbilical cord between your mind and mine
purges the rot and the caffeine in me,
makes me again an infant, a suckling, as
the circle of life rears its wanton beauty
I see sense.
I smell nonsense.
I taste lies. They have several flavors.
They taste like rotten mangoes, or
ketchup and mayonnaise, and other tastes alien to me.
I hear thunder. It calls my name. It warns me.
I touch honesty. It invites me, then bites my hand.
