6682. WHERE THE SAVAGE BURLEY

WHERE THE SAVAGE BURLEY
Where the savage Burley lives is a cabin on the
edge of the woods : I have distraught many others
in my day, but not this. "Wherever you are going, 
I have been there before you.' OK then, take that.
-
Just like the guy with the porch light always on,
sawing through metal deep into the night, his
whining power-tool is heard through these
streets. People wonder and say, "what the
hell is it he's doing?" I just shrug. It's
all immaterial, as I see it. 
-
Where the savage Burley lives is no place for me.
