9921. LET'S MAKE A HOLIDAY

LET'S MAKE A HOLIDAY
Let's make a holiday for knives and pitchforks
and fire and smoke. We can party at the doors
of Hell. We can extend the day, throughout the
week, and call it celebration. We can barbecue
the pure meat of things we've killed as well..
-
I'd go downtown for something like that.
Anything for a party and some fun : all
those terrific girls in their white, sundry 
wraps, and the new-dancing guys celebrating 
omens and ills. Sure, sure, we can make it 
work. Let's make a holiday, for every jerk.
-
Here, in this harbor, we can open the boats
and let everyone in   -  a long row of cabins
to sink or swim. The fires on shore will
remind us  -  just another holiday again.
