Sometime during eternity

Sometime during eternity
some guys show up
and one of them
who shows up real late
is a kind of carpenter
from some square type place
like Galilee
and he starts wailing
and claiming he is hip
to who made heaven
and earth
and that the cat who really laid it on us
is his Dad.


You’re hot
they tell him
And they cool him
They stretch him on the Tree to cool
And everybody after that
is always making models
of this Tree
with Him hung up
and always crooning His name
and calling him to come down
and sit in
on their combo
as if he’s the king cat
who’s got to blow
or they can’t quite make it

Only He don’t come down
from His Tree
Him just hang there
on his Tree
looking real Petered out
and real cool
and also,
according to a round up
of late world news
from the usual unreliable sources
real dead.

Lawrence Ferlinghetti
