With the palms of their hands they turn back the rainbows
the great magician sets the tomatoes on his forehead
Again thou hauntest castle and grounds
The roebuck whistles the stallion bounds
(And this is how the world is this is all that's ahead of us)”

“I hold peace and war in my toga but I'l take a cherry flip
Today nobody knows whether he was tomorrow

out of the trolley car it's a great age…”

“Have you seen the fish that have been standing in front of the
opera in cutaways
for the last two days and nights..?
Ah ah ye great devils – ah ah ye keepers of bees and commandments
With a bow wow wow with a bow woe woe who does today not know
what our Father Homer wrote…”
