In the deadpan of poetry
Like any other mutant in the American grain
“speakers do not mark prosodically punch lines or jab lines”
But let it all sink to the bottom.
Bottom’s up! Such is the burden of the song.
And sometimes this can go on all night long
When the pills don’t kick in and the street noise interferes
With the dreams that are buzzing around my ears.
