Lord she’s gone done left me done packed / up and split



and I with no way to make her



come back and everywhere the world is bare



bright bone white crystal sand glistens



dope death dead dying and jiving drove



her away made her take her laughter and her smiles



and her softness and her midnight sighs—







Fuck Coltrane and music and clouds drifting in the sky



fuck the sea and trees and the sky and birds



and alligators and all the animals that roam the earth



fuck marx and mao fuck fidel and nkrumah and



democracy and communism fuck smack and pot



and red ripe tomatoes fuck joseph fuck mary fuck



god jesus and all the disciples fuck fanon nixon



and malcolm fuck the revolution fuck freedom fuck



the whole muthafucking thing



all i want now is my woman back



so my soul can sing
