inspired by arthur rimbaud's poem "the bad little angel".
the last stanza is a reference to a haiku by jack kerouac.
shit on the street,
black as midnight
in a long, white hall way
(bright to blind)
there lies feces
(the only thing
truly to be seen)
i am thoroughly convinced
that the dalai lama
does not understand
why piss was so sacred
to jack kerouac

the last stanza is a reference to a haiku by jack kerouac.
defecating angel (contains some adult language)
defecating angel -shit on the street,
black as midnight
in a long, white hall way
(bright to blind)
there lies feces
(the only thing
truly to be seen)
i am thoroughly convinced
that the dalai lama
does not understand
why piss was so sacred
to jack kerouac
