The Last Hallucination



words from Adi Da's The Mummery Book
performance: January, 1995— Naitauba
(with Adi Da attending)
music by Chris Tong
(rough cut from the rehearsal tape)
 
On the beach,
ships can be counted in thousands —
through a glass.
with Whales
and Great Birds
like Torches
in the under-Sea.
Horses
Run Around
the Ocean edges,
on the cliffs.
While Dogs
Run Horses
into caves —
to Drown.
All Night,
You wait —
lying in the Fire.
Your hand hangs Open,
across Your eye.
Your Wife hands You
a Cut Flower —
to Remember Her.
This
is
the last hallucination.
Then,
the boats,
and the salad.
