4904. AND SO


AND SO
And so haul the hammer-claw like a nine-man
posse, paint the mansion new white. Alb and
chalice will have to do : if these fellows refuse
to leave, I don't know what I'll do. The scabrous
one, Nikos, now he's calling for another beer.
My God, this never ends - all those laughing
girls are stringing popcorn, or something like it,
near the cape'd and open doorway. Everyone is
still laughing, but there's a tragedy outside. There's
a tragedy outside, and they won't eve know it. The 
tar and macadam of all we send forth is stalled and
writhing on the ground - for anyone who says
Reality is all we get, this must be so, a majestic
sound. Scoff at nothing, fine fellows! Yes, haul
Nikos another beer! He shall live forever!
