about

A noise dream for the creative spirit & the beginning of things, and for David Chirot, a visual poet and artist whose life and work are an enduring inspiration ... "Fire escape ... how high!" ... Enter Dennis Hopper like a renegade cop on a cocaine binge. In Paris, they rewrite the ending of Apocalypse Now. ... On a Boston fire escape, Allen Ginsberg dreams Siva laughing, smoking ... "Fire escape ... how high!"

lyrics

Hello old friend, it's good to see you
Every now and then, I do think of you
Random patios ... In the summertime
We talk of Burroughs and the car that we stole.

Fire

And so old friend, this is where the poets go
All the brazen cars, headed for the bus stop
Come walk a while with me; it isn't very far
We'll paint the shadows with the bright words we made.

Fire

Here we are old friend, listen to the wild palms shake
Out there in the distance, dry in the summer haze
We've got this fire escape, a pack of smokes, a jug of wine
The city lights are golden. Fire escape high!

Fire
laughter
Fire escape high
