And Now for my Birthday...
Every year for his birthday Miguel reads a long poem. It's an annual event. I mean I know the birthday is but the poem, as all good gonzo theater should operate has overshadowed the original meaning and purpose of the day. Listen. He is about to begin:
"And Now For My Birthday"
by Miguel
They gathered from near and far
Sounds of celebration cruised the festive affair like a powerful car.
Such sights I have never seen.
Could all these people have come from my dream?
In my sleep I had this thought
That to stand and read a long poem was a gift that could not be bought.
Here I stand and read
All the crazy thoughts since last year that have come to my head.
And as I draw back my lips and shake my tongue
Some of the things you do just before you have begun.
And the people shift in the seats
They know hearing a long poem is really a treat
I suddenly realize I have begun too soon
Because before reading a long poem one should go to the restroom.
