Thanks for that heads-up, TNT.

To Inside Job and whoever else played a role in the overhaul of Lu’s site:

Could we, please, “rededicate” this new & improved forum to the memory of SonO?

Thank you.

“In the early nineteen-sixties, the photographer Barry Feinstein asked his friend Bob Dylan to write some text to accompany a series of pictures of Hollywood. The result of the collaboration, rejected by a publisher at the time, will appear in November.”

“17”

after crashin the sportscar

into the chandelier

i ran out t the phone booth

made a call t my wife. she wasnt home.

i panicked. i called up my best friend

but the line was busy

then i went t a party but couldnt find a chair

somebody wiped their feet on me

so i decided t leave

i felt awful. my mouth was puckered.

arms were stickin thru my neck

my stomach was stuffed an bloated

dogs licked my face

people stared at me an said

“what’s wrong with you?”

passin two successful friends of mine

i stopped t talk.

they knew i was feelin bad

an gave me some pills

i went home an began writin

a suicide note

it was then that i saw

that crowd comin down

the street

i really have nothing

against

marlon brando

“21”

death silenced her pool

the day she died

hovered over

her little toy dogs

but left no trace

of itself

at her

funeral
