THE ISLAND OF LOST BOYS

South Sea Peter Pan
Carolina Palmetto
dark island dream..
Where the Boys sleep all day
in the moss-drooping forest
and eat Slim Jims & Brownies & Stouffers Pizza
and drink Gin Bracers and
Tequila Delights..
Where the girls are smiling and sleepless
sun-worn, surf-frazzled
herb-burnt and coca-crazed..
where the Action never stops
forever Monday Football
forever giant video golf compete
pre-dawn bleary Cable James Cagney
laughs
Where the Boys sleep all day and
when the sun drops low,
wake to
snap-on fire sizzling Amps
click-in plug chrome chords into
glossy guitar backs
ringing out rolling rythyms
and Dance ecstatic
while the bright Atlantic moon
moans across the
endless rumbling surf
And then
the Boys sleep all day
And then
dream...
of endless youth
