NEW YORK
4 AM,
Greyhound bus terminal, Negroes, porters, escalators, lights, escalators,
piONEer, always Cocka-Cola, cig-ends resurrected, Campbell cans warshipped,
pillars leaning on dozing bodies gobbled up by clothes frenziedly munch my
remnants sprinkle above police eyes invisible under visors, on clubs to hit,
slash, cram bodies with bruise, to exhibit military body art, allnighdaytmare,
lifelong ROAD up to disCLOSED, bulged sleepless eyelids, escalatoring out and
out and out into the Newyorkness of omnipossible coloring plus the orgasm of
porous imagination jerked off by the past days routine, while doors sesaming
open, beggars clutching at the newly-shown-up utterly novel, funny to hysteric
giggling, eyelashes resembling their reached-out alms-hands five witch
finger-nails of which prick the tyro's empty belly. New York & fear to make
a step on. America smiles just to show its teeth. Strangers in the night. O. O
that Mike or Nick was his, well, all I can recall now is that it was a
nick-maim, that Hungarian unlucky porter-out-of-New-York-night-awe who asked not
a rusty penny for carrying half of damned heavy items o' mine. Bangladeshi, Hungarian, German lump each other together, talktalkandtalk on till you can feel the beat and feel the they-are-none-the-worse mind frame to draw you vorwarts groping stolzvoll through the streets unknown and brutalizing to the point of adrenalin boiling all away, right away with the thousanded sun-sperm bursting through enormous labyrinth of longest stone-pane geometricall cocks of N.Y. Three
cheers! the sleeping, the awakened, all nations, races, and sexes that encounter
each other perpetually right here or a little farther [good morning lady excuse
me where can I find the six hundred thirty fifth avenue?] like the most
eccentric rediscovered colors flowing into one another's indispensable
expressiveness from upon the Artist's Canvass into. I find the Armenian flag in
the bunch of others deceitfully waving themselves to us. Told of existence of no
635th avenue. Ladies and gentlemen even if even if building I had misunderstood the direction that was actually 630 5th avenue. I
HAVE BEEN TO THE SIX HUNDRED THIRTY FIFTH AVENUE IN THE CITY OF NEW
YORK!
