Altitude's Search for Beatitude
Sabu(that forever elephant boy)and Dumbo
go riding through rogue meteors and
howling shrapnel, they are riding to the
wedding of the spirit and the flesh,
it's the wedding they've been burning up the net with,
i think a lot of folks will be there,
no matter what condition they are in.
Altitude hired a detective
said, go find me Beatitude, it went missing
some time ago, and the detective
crawled through all the holes looking
diligently.
Beatitude was at the wedding of the flesh and the spirit,
drinking way too much, maybe, but it had
a certificate from the drinking doctor saying
it was okay.
I once sat in with the drinking doctor,myself.
He poured me all over his hair.
I got comfortable rolling around there.
Sometimes my altitude gropes around searching
for beatitude.
The respective firing squads, when asked to
execute all the lovers in the world,
ran out of bullets.
