West Coast Madness.

Bums and girls
upon the shore,
sweaty foreheads,
whizzing cars,
lying upon itchy grass,
thirsty beats,
naked on the sand,

your in my way
                  fading sun
                          get of my land.

This boy's baked beans,
toast and buttered
steaming gutter
the beach whale dreams

Drunks,
      families,
              drunken families,
bitter lovers
              shaping brothers,

all baking within this oven
upon the shore of
west coast madness,
sweating souls and
teaching lovers
its all a dream
its all a dream
its all a dream......

                                          spb.

Notes: Just thinking of fast jazz music with trumpets flying and drums swinging and these words came into my head while people watching on a Vancouver beach.
