(Thought Goatten Production Notes for Hamagamous
Johnny, Read with Caesuras)
I.
Nobody Johnny [Video: In
cape, al la Frank L. Wright
went up to Coalcrotch house capitol bldg
Brothers from the coal pile down had shot a sisters’ spouse.
Abe Lincoln
Ants stormed the rouse,
mashed Coalcrotch hopes: Pearl Harbor
came the Call Hamogamous!
UN security council
Exterminate them ants! Atom bomb, Otaku
Nobody made president. Cockroach dressed as emperor
Nobody donned the Toproach Hat. Secret initiation, Bohemian Grove, Nimrod Room
Nobody combated wasps. Iran
He placed old Roach Nabucodinosaur
upon his head. Washington Ascending to Heaven
On
Blattaria they spoke!
Bush
on carrier, Shock and Awe
From roofs they wrote the troops! Coffins from Iraq
Fellow Blatterrans marched with pride Troop march, goose step
Blabu!
Blabu! they cried. Ticker tape parade, NYC]
But this was not the only crux
That drove the cockroach out.
Elders prate when a Coalcrotch saw a shoe it should retreat.
Escape by oversight, dodge left or right!
The average shoe gives time!
But Johnny called the plan outworn,
Johnny, “the shoes
have grown!”
Those leaders heeded a Coalcrotch brain
E’en bigger than their own.
It swarmed a change, then won the prize,
High heel in back of the shoe!
He broke it down at MacCoalcrotch Town
“Not
left o right go down!”
A. New. Day. Dawned.
II.
Congress lunched as Johnny told
The high place in front of the heel.
Nymphs chanted as Johnny revealed
“no
left o right, go down!”
Congress rose up! Critical mass!
Here was a roach with theories to match
They passed the law that day and marched them home.
From the kitchen wings they flapped,
Soared like Coalcrotches from space,
Johnny saw a Bigfoot
them and flew toward the battle place.
Victory to the symbiont!
Johnny made a beautiful move!
Safe in the high place! Johnny! Johnny!
But stop! Look out! The heel!
…………………………………………
…………………………………………
…………………………………………
Strum Sewer that
day slammed
them all between the eyes.
El Presidente muert,
it said,
Congress assembled like flies.
Coalrathie Lost… the story
told
how Johnny brought peace for the roach…
Hurt under his cup dreaming health care passed…
Breaking new ground that silver spade…
Made a sharp thrust in his back!
Johnny dreamed the bill was law
And it killed him. THAT’S ALL!
III.
The Laurel Roach made ready then
to sit on a heroes brow.
Strum Sewer lay
with the front page news
On the stoop beside the towel.
In the bathtub where the funeral was held
for the Nabu leader who died,
Rolls of Coalcrotch crammed them in,
Nabu! Nabu! They cried.
Many a Thatched Oothecan hung on the humid wall
A Coalcrotch in Black
came forward and spoke:
