Cloud Shadow 87
I wanna be be be

let go ~
Of me me me me

and
my ego ~
I
just
can't
let go ~
Of over 40 years
of

kickin' ego ~
Forty and two
hun-
dred
more ~
Add some odd
thousand
to
the score ~
For it's become apparant
to the narcistic
ass
that I am ~
That's how long
I've been ranting
in front
of this damn ~
Curious reader, how
can
you
stand ~
Putting up with the
rantings of this
disintegrating
skeleton man?
Cloud Shadow 88
Ahhhhhhh hell,
Jesus is
up
there now ~
Can He
rescue me
some
howwwwwww?
I creak upright
onto
my rickity
skeleton feet ~
Out to the deck, to
the bow of my ship
and His eyes
and my eye sockets meet ~
"Jesus!
I
am
in a jammmmmmm ~
"How do I
get by
this
dammmmmmm!"
That's what I yell
and He yells back
coooooool
as cool is cool ~
"Verily verily, fly
over
it,
old fool!"
Cloud Shadow 89

ternal ceegar nose ~
And 'de ash disappear

of 'de planet a-
bove which he glows ~
