Guest guest Posted August 23, 2002 Report Share Posted August 23, 2002 long long i lay in the sands sounds of trains in the surf in subways of the seas and an even greater undersound of a vast confusion in the universe a rumbling and a roaring as of some enormous creature turning under sea and earth a billion sotto voices murmuring a vast muttering a swelling stuttering in oceans speakers world's voice-box heard with ear to sand a shocked echoing a shocking shouting of all life's voices lost in night and the tape of it somehow running backwards now throug the moog synthesizer of time chaos unscrambled back to the first harmonies and the first light ~Lawrence Ferlinghetti LoveAlways, Mazie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
