Jack Kerouac Poems

The great hanging weak teat of India
on the map
The Fingernail of Malaya
The Wall of China
...

April doesnt hurt here
Like it does in New England
The ground
Vast and brown
...

I keep falling in love
with my mother,
I dont want to hurt her
-Of all people to hurt.
...

Man is not worried in the middle

Man in the Middle
Is not Worried
...

The wheel of the quivering meat
conception
Turns in the void expelling human beings,
Pigs, turtles, frogs, insects, nits,
...

Butte Magic of Ignorance
Butte Magic
Is the same as no-Butte
...

And how sweet a story it is
When you hear Charley Parker
tell it,
...

Roosevelt was worth 6, 7 million dollars
He was Tight
...

One flower
on the cliffside
Nodding at the canyon
...

Describe fires in riverbottom
sand, and the cooking;
the cooking of hot dogs
spitted in whittled sticks
...
