That's All

Paul Butterfield Blues Band: East-West
Diana Krall: East of the Sun, West of the Moon




Happy.
Just in my swim shorts,
barefooted, wild-haired,
in the red fire dark,
singing, swigging wine,
spitting, jumping, running,
that's the way to live.
All alone and free in the
soft sands of the beach
by the sigh of
the sea out there,
with the Ma-Wink
fallopian virgin warm stars
reflecting on the outer
channel fluid belly waters.
And if your cans are
redhot and you can't
hold them in your hands,
just use good old railroad gloves, that's all.
--Jack Kerouac
from The Dharma Bums
