I could of swore
alured and a' cheated
even repeated
an aluring lie
spy
arrest
detested
protest
A bored discord of random authority
And unchallanged authority
From the days of the vaccum
Tube
Gotten
A'Long An Thinned
Grown
Resting
Standing
Running
Walking
Talking
Stalking
Balking
Or in intercourse with his
Female friends
Once a year
Just a long thin John
With his blind reticent
Horse
A' ruled a square foot
Parcel
Uncontended
Unelected
UnSelected
Not voted in
or highly
Appointed
Stamped
Sealed
or
Appealed....
Self Appointed
To say whose
Horse
House Land and Future plans
Money
Honey
or
shit filled mine
Whose whose
Owned and Registered
Place
isn't his
In 'is own name and handwriten
lonely
lazy
reticent
delegation
of His Own
"One"
an' "Undivided self"
he called it
In social comment on the rest of
the races places
Rock music played in is ear
"An along came John"
"Big Bad John"
As the wind played his off
keyed tunes
As he turned the lockes on the doors
of his ruled spaces
As he worried
would some rat or high tall
authority come along some day
Ruin
'is say
and send 'em back a toil
at something else less professional
some day
Though he always stayed and remained
as boss
"of the wild frontier"
with the same roof above his head
the same wooded sents and trees
'an houses an stores an offices
there the same day
he ad walked the grounds
he now had decided
he had
no contest
adeeded to himself in heart
an deed in
his name
An pssed his first ordinace
last year on public behavior
an unruley activity
An was honored
An respected for his wisdoms
no soul of his had afore ever
respected or honored before
An 'ad of couse changed his name
so his past and occuppied dissenters
not get a foot in the door
of his quiet little town
he left nameless
to be not on a map of the vicinity
he 'ad found out an 'ad kept secret
that his learned perception
was as secret an enveavor
with
as secret assumed and a' implied meaning
as the places of
the holy grails
his nations major out houses
military defenses
prostitution rings
water'd springs
for all the high and mighty
things
As to have gained
a very strict confidence
and security
for his rights
intrusions
leadership illusions
at this place he ad settled
and secretely secreted
Alone
in this new found "deserts of life"
-he called mankinds' lot and fate on
earth or wherever"
An later discovered
they gave 'em
part of the desert too
nearby
whether they knew
or not
was only an act
he 'ad
An' he ad just alone walked in the door
An' 'ad taken over the joint.
From the blue
'an the desert had grown life too
as 'ad everything he knew
'ad earned the same,
as soon as
he 'ad ruled
And intime he 'ad reticently
added
a name and written thought to the dictionary
he composed
of the slow and reticent way
life 'ad not only treated 'im
each day
but was of the exact way of the working of things
as faras he kne
as any never present objector
would 'have filled 'im in better too
as the same as all
who ever 'ad heard em
met 'im'
'ad never nothing to say anew
Was the way things worked
By 'is
Newly Uncontested Lonely Rule
Rule Measures
An Office keeping Treasures
of
Aba Baba Baba Ba Blottoa
the town with the secret name
he gave it
with the same acquired
thin air license
Aba Baba Baba Ba Blottoa
meaning both
SHRUGGED SHOULDER
AND
WHO KNOWS...?
In any combination or permuted
arrangement
In his own invented dictionary notes
He slowly put together
Thoughtfully
As 'is green
thumb planted anything as was good
each an every turned corner
an' the sun light 'is eye
as the fertile shade behind
did prosper an' nurture
the woven maize
'is feet had traveled
'is head held haughty above
'ad never seen or known
happy in 'is ruleing
out house venture
of grand interntional fame.
