"Now Does the Trick" all too well
With balance, harmony, and simplicity,
Now slips their hand into the pocketbook of modfathers
without being nicked by nostalgia
Harmony on every corner
“Beat Girl” playing on late night TV
The fantasy soundtracks People doing handstands at a party with Syd Barrett
Where the Soft Boys play in the background and no one crosses a picket line,
Like a long walk next to the train tracks on Ringo’s day out
with Sunlight Bathed in the Golden Glow:
A little blood in your teeth of an Andy and Edie bubblegum Dream.
