Epitaph in El Dorado
Journey high, trip high
The shade replied
About the mountains
To the valley
There upon a cliff
You are going to see
A put known as
El Dorado
His madden mind
Was sick with suffering
Beholding to the shadow
But he found the gold
And then was advised
You'll by no means leave
The valley...
And so it was
That he grew outdated
Sitting there in the Valley

Counting gold
Feeding on toads...
And
I'm sick of this poem
But it demands an conclude
So my pal, I have to say
This epitaph was is his story.

Epitaph of a Shoeshine Boy
[A Macabre poem]
I are not able to sleep, I cannot snooze
In moon struck ebony,
My ghostly palms upon my knees--
The useless are useless you see.
The earth is heat underneath my ft
As seasons appear and go.
I am, am neither smart nor daring,
But chilly, am I you see.
I cannot sleep, I can't slumber
I look upon a bed
I need to even now really like the dwelling very best:

Who hate the ghostly useless?
While, I stroll by itself once again
Wandering, aimlessly
I was a shoeshine boy, you know
But who remembers me (?)
Notice: When I was a boy of eleven to thirteen, I utilized to go from bar to bar in St. Paul,
Minnesota and shoeshine (l958-sixty one). I made money that way, right up until I was
fourteen-years outdated, at which time I labored for what is now the "Fitzgerald Theater" in
which Garrison Keillor (whom I met two times) has his exhibit, "A Prairie House companion."

Lyric Rain
[A Minnesota Poem]
Ah! Previous night time it was a evening
A night time of lyric rain
The trees ended up swaying, swaying--
Just about every which-way...
I so appreciate the wild rain
Un-refrained
Its interesting breezes, sharp fangs,
Fangs, and empty-eyed
Replenishing earths strains
Washing away all the grime--
And secretly, nurturing

Observe: It rained out past night time (a storm), in St. Paul, Minnesota, Usa three:30 AM. My
mom used to be frightened by these kinds of storms, but I cherished them it would seem odd

Noche en Jamaica
[Peruanismo: 1810]
Esta fuè una noche lluviosa ellos dicen
Cuando don Simón Bolívar
Dormido en los brazos de la hermosa
- Luisa Crober
( de Jamaica) mas un
asesino slideò su blanco
Cuando apuñaló al Comandante Amestoy
hacia el valle
Allí sobre una roca
Usted verá
Un lugar llamado
El Dorado
Su cerebro enfurecido

Estaba enfermo con dolor
Contemplando a la sombra
Pero él encontró el oro
Y luego dijeron
Usted nunca se marchará
del valle ...
Y entonces fuè
Que él envejeciera
sentado allí en el Valle
Contando oro
Comiendo sapos ...
y
Estoy harto de este poema
Pero esto necesita un ultimate
Asì mi amigo, debo decir
Mis manos fantasmales sobre mis rodillas-
