[bernardphoto]

they danced down the 

street... and I shambled after 

as I've been doing all my life 

after people who interest me,

because the only people for me

are the mad ones, 

the ones who are mad to live, 

mad to talk, mad to be saved, 

desirous of everything 

at the same time, the ones who 

never yawn or say a 

commonplace thing, but  burn, burn, 

burn like fabulous yellow 

roman candles exploding like 

spiders across the stars and in 

the middle you see the blue 

centerlight pop and everybody 

goes 'Awww!'  "
