The Good Gardener---Augie March[00:00:00]
Here sits a once good gardener pale as a shadow of a doubt [00:00:09]
Once a happy dweller of a garden good once a sleepy sinner [00:00:19]
Once cast out[00:00:26]
To the sea where the crossy-eyed maids murmur low "do you see do you see[00:00:31]
Where the doubts cross his shadow "[00:00:38]
Drowned and amoral I pollinate the coral and reek of the deep[00:00:41]
Where I've tended the water weed -[00:00:47]
I was once your good gardener sing to bring on Spring [00:00:50]
I know where your good grass grows [00:00:58]
I know what your boyfriend knows [00:01:01]
I was your good gardener [00:01:04]
I saw twilight car waxers corpulent dog walkers [00:01:34]
Clean canny couples on the sunset strip [00:01:39]
From a tower forty miles to the east of Augusta saw a plague on the Indian[00:01:43]
A'coming on a windship [00:01:50]
You were in the garden when the wind swept up[00:01:52]
And took the foul words from your mouth[00:01:57]
Now you know what your sarcasm really really means[00:02:01]
It's the tearing with your teeth of the flesh from the bones of your brother -[00:02:06]
Kill the shrub to fertilise the flower [00:02:12]
Did I hear you saying that the form doesn't matter [00:02:15]
Well form into matter the matter is forever but only in a good garden[00:02:19]
Black rock bound in the Brighton bowl where the seas of desolation roll [00:02:46]
Where you're borne and borne[00:02:55]
And borne in again to the pebble-feather shore of forgotten friends[00:02:57]
Think how you can't see the science without seeing first the self [00:03:04]
But then nobody thinks of growing somebody else [00:03:09]
And how the sun hungry sun holds the withered withered world [00:03:13]
So why shouldn't I kiss the beautiful girl [00:03:18]
When I was her good gardener [00:03:23]
Sing of the Summer sham [00:03:28]
O see them grow tall see them in their rot [00:03:32]
See them go to seed in the cemetery plot[00:03:37]
I was your good gardener[00:03:42]
Sing to bring on Spring[00:03:46]
O ice of Winter would crackle and splinter with my love in everything[00:03:51]
Ice of Winter would crackle and splinter with my love in everything[00:04:00]
I was your good gardener [00:04:09]
The sea is stark and lovely and it scares me to the point of rapture[00:04:26]
I was your good gardener of some good stature[00:04:35]
The sea is stark and lovely and it scares me to the point of rapture[00:04:44]
I was your good gardener now I - can barely - look at ya[00:04:54]
