jay and barbara on the right of me
sari and barry on the left of me
shedding all sense of self
was there not a soul dismayed?
saving all sentient beings
and El Dupree to boot
into the valley of true love
rode the furry n-hundred
smack smash zap/zonk/pow
thorn wickle ding splat
"fur was flying everywhere,
i left without my hat"
melting uncontrollably into
undifferentiated cosmic
slim-bucket ooze-diddle
then, faces smiling, reconstituting,
same as before yet somehow different
look!  up in the sky!
it's a bird;  it's a plane.
it's the fat man singing,  "my blue heaven"

now back in your corners for another round.

round?  round?

gently down the stream...."
