Obviously the best looking
Those other guys
Yeah, they carried it
Just like Jack Casady on bass
Bless its Pointed Little Head album
Google it
Listen

The original Box Head
What do I always say ?

July 1976 - July 1977
It all started out, when he was born
he lived a life of rage and scorn
a sick attitude against his family
his mind is wicked, murder was his fantasy
Pursuing his motives he takes your life
with shotgun in hand, you scream in fright
and now its your time to die
takes out his weapon and aims between the eyes
He called himself the Son of Sam
all your lives will soon be damned
.44 caliber special bulldog revolver
the heads of his victims looked like peach cobbler
Locked in a cell for all his life
many...

I know what toilet paper my sexy neighbor uses
Home delivery
Apt. Building
We see what everyone buys
Small building
Your secrets aren't safe
So
BIG BOX
30 rolls of Angel Soft
I’m a Charmin Soft guy
Shouldn’t be a problem

An Ode to GG Allin
Born as Jesus Christ Allin in 1956
Known for his wild antics, most people thought were sick
During the late 70's his interest grew with Punk Rock
Began releasing albums, stripping, showing off his cock
These performances gained him infamy
People flocked to see his bursts of violence & hostility
Self-mutilation, defecation, smearing shit on the audience & himself
Arrested 36 times, analyzed, they said he didn't need any help
Challenged complacency, pushing the boundaries, embracing disorder
Rebellious, earned a cult like following, albums...

Popeye, dump that bitch Olive Oyl
Where's me spinach, Olive Oyl?
Why blow me over, Olive Oyl?
Diamonds are a girls best friend, says Olive Oyl
That's malarchy, Olive Oyl
Popeye, you and Bluto need to fight over me, whoever wins can take me out dancing, says Olive Oyl
Will Popeye ever dump that bitch Olive Oyl?

Suffering Succotash
Couldn't Warner Brothers just once, have Sylvester the Cat eat that little wise ass Tweety Bird?
Sure, there were a few cartoons where Sylvester manages to briefly eat Tweety up, but usually Granny or some other character makes Sylvester spit Tweety out of his mouth.
It's a damn shame, since this cat needed his protein.
Sylvester never had a break. Always getting pummeled by Granny, Spike the Bulldog or even Tweety Bird.
There was even some early episodes where he's paired up with Porky Pig. Porky Pig would scold him, since Sylvester was a scaredy cat and would get Porky...

New York City ..Wear Black
On the Q train this morning
Taking note
Everyone wearing some black
I'm in all Black
Head to toe
Pretty common
A word of warning
You should wear black
If you don't
You're seen as a tourist
Could get you mugged
Or worse

Collage Art - Not Pretty - What I Do
On purpose
Cut up old paintings
Make collages
This one came out rustic
Added oil pastels
Functional
Not pretty
Life is like that
I’m not pretty anymore
Most parts still working …

Mafioso - The American Dream
Italian, The Irish 'The American Dream'
A sweeping virus reigned supreme...
A new decade of organised crime
Judges paid from doin' time
New York, Chicago, The Heads, The Don
Coke contained cargo, imported from
Bootleg liquor, prostitute beds
Low light flicker, corrupted feds
Fancy sharp suits, rival attacks
Dirty rats, hit-men contracts
Illegal casinos, sunset strip
Cuban, Latino, money trip
Witness protect, the end of the game
Hoods recollect... A ratted out name
A sweeping virus reigned supreme...
A new decade of organised crime
Judges paid from doin' time
New York, Chicago, The Heads, The Don
Coke contained cargo, imported from
Bootleg liquor, prostitute beds
Low light flicker, corrupted feds
Fancy sharp suits, rival attacks
Dirty rats, hit-men contracts
Illegal casinos, sunset strip
Cuban, Latino, money trip

We were both married so screwing was a no go ..
That lasted about 2 drinks
Then innocence took a back seat
City Life is a meat grinder
You can tenderize and flame
Some like her well done
I took her medium with luscious pink
Bukowski was at the table in the corner
Hunter S. Thompson too
Wasted in the smokey dark heat
Comparing poetry and fright
I was at home with Sha Sha
Lou Reed stopped by to say hello
She didn't say much
Her English was a vacancy
We communicated in shy glances
Touched each other in places...

Fraternal Orders
Hoping you will have knee-jerk reactions
these days they call everyone a Marxist
catering to their hate satisfactions
based on the political lessons they missed
or quite wilfully don't want you to know
in looming fights for re-enfranchisement
to the civil rights that you just let go
because of fake fraternal despisement
which MAGA voters cravenly allowed
when mass hysteria was their rumor
shaped so well by the loud for the proud
akin to brains sheltering a tumour
blocking access to any Marxist thought...
