Fool Thing

Bingo Hall, Stage

It's a coronation up in here.
Vulgar organ. Rock ring heart.
America: lick my pie, lick it tart.
& Lenin's girl does Swell Bone Mania:
     Oh, swarthy one, clouds are only on.
     The universe's sweet switchboard shines
     & that cranky wooden bee wouldn't be
     so damned fine without his "sure do, honey"
     & in the meanwhile . . .
a chain at the bottom of the dress tinkles with every step.
     & lately lately lately
I hear my lambs croon real cool, right up in my bad ear,
singing: hear here:
     Vulgar organ. Rock ring heart.
