Coming back by Peter Edler

Returning

from the dead the other day

it struck me how easy dying can be

You might consider it some time

Mr. George Walker Bush Decider

or if that’s too bold a cue

why not just george

a nice long walker

into the bush

and decider not to come back!

OPINIONS WRITINGS ABOUT BEAT GENERATION
updated 31 january 2010

`Jack Kerouac once noted, while walking down a residential street at night, glancing into living rooms lit by the gray glare of television sets, that we have become a world of people "thinking the same thoughts at the same time." Every day, millions upon millions of human beings sit down at the same time to watch the same football game, the same mini-series, the same newscast. And where might all this shared experience and uniformity of thought be taking us?`
