Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "Verlaine


(dedicato: Charles Baudelaire & Jean-Luc Goddard, both Poets; the latter had a Camera.)


"Dead beat, on Desperado,
some OTHER Mother's Son;
Beat or DEAD
(Pick him UP!?) Save Him!
Hand him...TO DA MAN!?
As the Violins of Autumn, ya frickers,
piss-off my heart.

-On Rodeo Drive, L.A.,
Fashion Avenue, N.Y.C.,
or in the Bois de Boulogne
with "Une Anale legume"
up his Ass, looking sad,
no Councillieri!!!
As the Violins of October
piss off my Heart.

A Gypsy song: Gaetana Canzone,
a tarantella, a dirge, a Psalm
or words from the Bible,
for U, a lullaby, Monsieur?
Crack a smile! Or
RE-RACK your Skeleton;
November's Violins
will rake men apart?

Who the Poor boy, Prostitute,
Gal or BOY!
"Perché la ragazzo?"
DOUBLE PENETRATION
in your Insidious game?
"C'mon un petite?"
December's Violins
kill me again?

On YOUR doorstep,
deadbeat and desperate;
the Desperado's last BREATH,
kissin' your Valet's' shinny shoes:
on the steps of your Palais?
On the STEPS where U walk?
A Violin. A Season. A Walk.
And I sing...of Verlaine without voice.
