a thanksgiving prayer - william s. burroughs lyrics
for john dillinger
in hope he is still alive
thanks for the wild turkey and the p-ssenger pigeons, destined to be sh-t out through wholesome american guts —
thanks for a continent to despoil and poison —
thanks for indians to provide a modic-m of challenge and danger —
thanks for vast herds of bison to kill and skin, leaving the carc-ss to rot —
thanks for bounties on wolves and coyotes —
thanks for the american dream to vulgarize and falsify until the bare lies shine through —
thanks for the kkk, for n-gg-r-killing lawmen feeling their notches, for decent church-going women with their mean, pinched, bitter, evil faces —
thanks for “kill a queer for christ” stickers —
thanks for laboratory aids —
thanks for prohibition and the war against drugs —
thanks for a country where n-body is allowed to mind his own business —
thanks for a nation of finks —
yes,
thanks for all the memories… all right, let’s see your arms…
you always were a headache and you always were a bore
thanks for the last and greatest betrayal of the last and greatest of human dreams.
