this is loosely based on the Harlan Ellison book, Gentleman Junkie, 1961. At the time, I wrote this, Tipper Gore was going nuts in the Senate over " Dirty Lyrics". Put me in a tailspin. It wouldn't have been so bad, except she needed to be sure of her facts, and she wasn't. She pitched a bitch over what she called "sublima" except what she presented was actually the stuff of Victorian Literature. Sublims are one or two frames in which something else is superimposed. You can't hear it or see it, but it imprints. Victorian Literature is very Freudian. Why not? Freud was Victorian. His psychology is largely invalid, because we're no longer Victorian. When people weren't Victorian, along came Jung with his archetypes, anima, animus, and synchronicity. Things got happy. Then something happened between then and now. We grew up. And yeah, hot dogs and doughnuts REALLY are just hot dogs and doughnuts.
Sitting on a Rusty Blade
By Angela SH Garcia aka NeonMercuryASH
Rubbing noses with priveleged slime
In the high rent district
where taste ran strict
Bouncing off the Borealis
Into the Ultra violet
They crowned him
King of the toilet
He couldn't get enough
He flaunted it all
He only wanted to stuff
his virulent influence
Down the throats of affluence
Floating on bad finance
In Banks stinking effluence
Pray that Baby Jesus
Is really a Jew
I know he sees us
And we screwed that up, too
Flamed by the torch igniting Ellis Isle
His sanity was on trial
Channel surfed a fallen pastor
Who swore out a tasteless sermon
On the rise and fall of man
Grabbed needles and knitted his hair
Into a matted ugly sweater
Pray that Baby Jesus
Is really a Jew
I know he sees us
And we screwed that up, too
They made him an idiot's erudite
then trashed his soul for spite
Like the cream, the scum also rises
To higher and higher hights
Just in time to collect a moron's prize
Limping on debauched genius
Pissing stupid the censor's penis
