Hey Daddyo & Chickie Baby !!!
Folks,
Circus of Cool is on the way !! It’s a fantastic, one-of-a-kind presentation.
It’s the Beat Era all over again!!! Poets perform their creations in tune with and amplified by a grooving Jazz Band !!
Miss Yvonne, Chicky Baby, Cool Cat, & Doggy Daddy; eat your hearts out!!! But black-leotarded interpretive dancers are welcome to join in!!! Ginsberg is dead, but we soldier on!!!
The event will transpire this Friday, November 17, at Dick’s Den, 2417 N High St., Columbus (614-268-9573) starting at 10:00.
It’s hip and cool and in the groove; and it’s overseen by the town’s own Chicky Baby herself, Ms. Krista, the Ring Mistress!! So come and enjoy – even in the heartland we can be Bi-Coastal.
For those who can’t attend, here’s the rant (sans the cool musical notes) – oh, and if you’re not from Ohio, and you missed the Mike DeWine video I posted a while back, check it out before you read the rant (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbZ_w-LSytg):
French Fried de Tocqueville
Ronald Reagan’s dead and playing catch with Bonzo
Somewhere in the Right Wing Afterworld,
And Bonzo’s grandson is our Presidential “Man” –
“the Decider” – Him - and his VP Spider - Here in the Real World
Did I tell you that he who fails to recognize the mistakes of history
is doomed to repeat them?
Did I tell you that he who fails to recognize the mistakes of history
is doomed to repeat them?
. . .
Did I tell you … Oh, t’ hell with it !! . . .
Repeat ‘em !!!
That’s what we’re here for. That’s what we do.
We fuck up - by the numbers. You can count on us;
We’re true – through and through – Red White and Blue !!!
See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil – rose-colored glasses –
We don’t want no trouble – we just wantta - yes sir - cover our asses.
Carefully on the Right side, the Big side,
the “We’re Number One” side,
the One With the Gun side.
For six years here in God’s favorite land
We denied the lie
With our heads in the sand
And then came the Mudslide !!
Wasn’t it grand !!!
Up to our ears, as the French might say,
In 30-second political “man-u-re”
Or “Freedom Shit,”
To put it another way.
“Rapunzel Brown . . .
I just don’t trust you
Rapunzel Brown let us down
She even let her own hair down !!
I’m Rumpelstiltskin, and I approved this message.”
And with that and fury and with sound
The earth quaked in every town
And proud, high towers tumbled down -
Rumpelstiltskin stamped his foot
and disappeared into the ground.
The voice of the dumb was then unbound
And the flock essayed to make a sound
As one, they raised a mighty voice
Giving thanks in great rejoice.
Then, almost as quick as it began,
Again they slipped their heads into the sand
and trusted God to tend their land.
Did I tell you that he who fails to recognize the mistakes of history
is doomed to repeat them?
Did I tell you that he who fails to recognize the mistakes of history
is doomed to repeat them?
. . .
Ahhh . . . What the fuck !!
