THE QUEEN BEAN'S MACHINE DEAN SEEN
Yer heavy bean's wrought-iron mother
The machine,
Ne're will know the nasty knowledge
Of college.
For below this all
Creeps the deadly Semen Demen ...
JACOB WEB
TRACK I
Making love isIike a choo choo train
Transcending from the stop
To go
Through loco motion.
Building steam
The wheels start snow balling down the tracks
Building speed
Until the separate parts hide away in blur
Butlding courage
The engineer coals the fire, decides to plunge
into the curving night.
Blasting through the quivering red flag
Waving on a star-spangled orgasm
He spies the crossroads.
Yanking the cord
The whistle blows,
The brakes slip,
And we slide into eternity.
R. B.
