Over Her Head |
Over her head |
A greasy flag |
Its stripes a grin |
About her hips |
Its stars lettuce seeds |
She says she’ll use |
To have her candy washed |
'Hotel lobby band' |
Is she really supposed to do |
What she pretends to do |
Under circumstances |
She can’t imagine? |
GINGER (slowly coming to grips |
With being grabbed by the lips): |
High on ice cream |
And not melting |
Mouths to feel |
But not be felt |
Leader: |
With no kissing beneath the belt! |
Women kept naked in the rain |
Their honor miraculously afloat |
Big ragged sunflower climbing cunts |
Ginger: |
What she can’t stand |
MEN: |
What — stand |
Women: |
What she can’t stand |
Yodelling ventriloquist: |
What she can’t stand |
Ginger: |
He doesn’t want |
MEN: |
He — want |
Women: |
He doesn’t want |
Yodelling ventriloquist: |
He does not want |
Ginger: |
Holding her down |
MEN: |
Hold — down |
Women: |
Holding her down |
Yodelling ventriloquist: |
Holding her down |
Ginger: |
She holds him up |
MEN: |
She — up |
Women: |
She holds him up |
Yodelling ventriloquist: |
She holds him up |
Ginger: |
Something implicit in the time — |
Women: |
Something implicit — |
MEN: |
Something — |
Ginger: |
— In the unsightly poultry — |
Women: |
— In the unsightly poultry — |
MEN: |
— In her — |
Ginger: |
— Of her eyes |
Women: |
— Of her eyes |
MEN: |
— Eye |
Leader: |
Ginger a pale saucer |
Ginger: |
Singing to mice |
Born dead in traps |
Ginger and leader: |
Contemplating suicide |
As protection from fraud |
Escalator over the hill |
