yo! Americana #5

 
 
 
 
driving on a late  
August evening  
 
stopped to pick
up a hitchhiker  
 
turned out to be  
the ghost of Kerouac  
 
a few miles down the  
road picked up some  
crazy cat named Cassidy  
 
night fell blind drunk,
stoned  
 
and America spread  
her legs wide and
showed everything
there was to see
