Toad Skin

From The Windjammer in the Forest


Oranges orages
oral fruit
I wonder if there's anything positive to say
and what sort of homage I might pay
to Toad Skin
my mott is
zero shall we say honor
let the misbegotten freak croak his last
speak my giant eagle speak
and convert the native rats
you're worth your weight in gold

the tide of their oral messages
flows nonstop
o years without luggage
do you want oral fruit
do you want cloud fruit?
speak my eagle speak
and convert your native rats
you're worth your weight in gold.
