Cold sweat
Is it warm or am I
The coldest I'd been yet

How you be you be
I
Don't

For the world and your injustice

(Titled:) Mickey M on Meditation and a Ceaseless Smile
Mickey faced the world and then
Mickey
Mickey faced the world and then
Mickey
Mickey faced the world and then
Mickey
Mickey had a lewd thought
Mickey
Mickey had a lewd thought
Mickey
Mickey had a lewd thought
(You know Mickey M, don't you? That icon of childhood innocence and,
at once, corporate greed. Ziad, a boy of puritan upbringing, is
tormented by his failure to find solace in meditation, and wonders
what the secret of Mickey M's ceaseless smile is. He admires Biloxi's
uninhibited, lewd health that he lacks (Ziad is unable to find
happiness despite his puritan attempts, and is yet unable to face the
world for what it is), and wonders if that's its secret.)
p.s. do you think we should put in prose notes like the above to
further make clear what the verses are about in the book? or leave it
to readers to figure it out or make out what they want out of it? We
always try to make the verses as clear and as simple as they can be.)
Apologies, thanks and regards.
