Yakniga
Keep your fingers out of my eye.

While I write I like to glance at the butterflies in glass that
are all around the walls. The people in memory are pinned to
events I can’t recall too well, but I’m putting one down to watch
him break up, decompose and feed another sort of life. The one
in question is all fully biodegradable material and categorised
as ’Rael’. Rael hates me, I like Rael, - yes, even ostriches
have feelings, but our relationship is something both of us are
learning to live with. Rael likes a good time, I like a good
rhyme, but you won’t see me directly anymore - he hates my being
around. So if his story doesn’t stand, I might lend a hand, you
understand? (ie. the rhyme is planned, dummies).

The flickering needle jumps into red. New York crawls out of its bed.

And the lamb lies down on Broadway.

Early morning Manhattan,
Ocean winds blow on the land.

The weary guests are asked to leave the warmth of the all-night
theater, having slept on pictures others only dream on.

Movie-Palace is now undone,
The all-night watchmen have had their fun.
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show,
It’s the same old ending - time to go.
Get out!
It seems they cannot leave their dream.

The un-paid extras disturb the Sleeping Broadway. WALK to the
left DON’T WALK to the right: on Broadway, directions don’t look
so bright. Autoghosts keep the pace for the cabman’s early mobile
race.

There’s something moving in the sidewalk steam,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.

Nightime’s flyers feel their pains.
Drugstore take down the chains.
Metal motion comes in bursts,
The gas station can quench that thirst.
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker’s eyes read ’Overload’

Enough of this - our hero is moving up the subway stairs into
day- light. Beneath his leather jacket he holds a spray gun which
has left the message R-A-E-L in big letters on the wall leading
underground. It may not mean much to you but to Rael it is part
of the process going towards ’making a name for yourself.’ When
you’re not even a pure-bred Puerto Rican the going gets tough
and the tough gets going.

And out on the subway,
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spraygun hid,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.

With casual sideways glances along the wet street, he checks
the motion in the steam to look for potential obstruction. Seeing
none, he strides along the sidewalk, past the drugstore with
iron guard being removed to reveal the smile of the toothpaste
girl, past the nightladies and past Patrolman Frank Leonowich
(48, married, two kids) who stands in the doorway of the wig-store.
Patrolman Leonowich looks at Rael in much the same way that other
Patrolmen look at him, and Rael only just hides that he is hiding
something. Meanwhile from out of the steam a lamb lies down.
This lamb has nothing whatsoever to do with Rael, or any other
lamb - it just lies down on Broadway.

The lamb seems right out of place,
Yet the Broadway street scene finds a focus in its face.
Somehow it’s lying there,
Brings a stillness to the air.
Though man-made light, at night is very bright,
There’s no whitewash victim,
As the neons dim, to the coat of white.
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Wipes his gun - he’s forgotten what he did,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.

Suzanne tired her work all done,
Thinks money - honey - be on - neon.
Cabman’s velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn.
Wonder women you can draw your blind!
Don’t look at me! I’m not your kind.
I’m Rael!
Something inside me has just begun,
Lord knows what I have done,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
On Broadway -
They say the lights are always bright on Broadway.
They say there’s always magic in the air.
