Richard Brautigan

[azmuse]

Hi
I haven't seen any mention of Richard Brautigan's work; i fell in love with his poetry Years ago; loved the Pill vs. The Springhill Mine Disaster (the book I mean, although the poem's great too). Have you read his stuff? (here are a few if not.)

December 30


At 1:30 in the morning a fart
smells like a marriage between
an avocado and a fish head.

I have to get out of bed
to write this down without
my glasses on.

The Fever Monument


I walked across the park to the fever monument.
It was in the center of a glass square surrounded
by red flowers and fountains. The monument
was in the shape of a sea horse and the plaque read
We got hot and died.
