- Saw a Man:
Loony [3:24]:
- saw a man rocking with his his
head in his hands he was moaning just as loud
as his lungs would allow he didn't seem to care
that it was not polite to holler so he didn't
seem to know he was supposed to shut up. the doctors
kept trying to comfort and calm him the orderlies
were groping for their tranquilizer guns they
didn't seem to see he had no recourse in the matter
his only hope was to yell louder than he could
think. so i said: go man go i'm with you man i
know what you're saying i know how you feel i'd
join you but i'm afraid i'm kind of busy right
now. saw a man screaming at a telephone pole he
waited for an answer then he screamed at it some
more he seemed to feel very strongly about whatever
it was that he was saying blood foam and robitussin
spraying from his lips. people rushed right past
him they couldn't seem to see him i couldn't move
or close my mouth i couldn't help but stare i
felt my hands start twitching something in me
started seething as he lurched into the street
and started tearing off his clothes. so i said:
go man go i'd join you but i'm afraid i'm kind
of on my way to work. go man go while i romanticize
the hell from which you're trying to escape.
