To Allen Ginsberg and Frank O’Hara Come out, ye boys of my literary dream Frank, stop discussing this Rembrandt painting Take a good drag like I never did, and come out Down the street, down the ***** ***** days of madness Allen, talk some sense into these selfied statuses Come out, ye boys and talk into the microphone Loosen your tie, Frank, show us some real art Lose it on the sidewalk ye boys and let’s break The rules, the locks, the prisons of the soul Addictions, fears, anxieties, inanities. Come out, ye boys and throw some rhymes to us So we can think about ourselves while worshipping you So that some people out there can stop whore-shipping Sending our lukewarm bodies and fluids against the wall What would you say Frank, of all the Rivers who Try to reproduce the beauty of the human body on screen Without the aesthetics, without the knowledge Of what love means. Garter belts and welts, is that all? Come out, ye boys and let’s be graphic, let’s be artistic Teach us how to spread your love your legs and your legacy Pass on this fearless gait, this adamant will to keep on Despite the junk of our cities down the ***** ***** streets Come out ye boys, admirers of poetry and people Come out under a rainbow or a ring, SM fans or prudes Let’s march on an on an on down our ***** ***** streets With ye, boys.
