Jack Smith
A great friend and inspiration, one of the most amusing people I have ever known. He starred in several of my Performance Art Events, playing Tiresias the Seer in my Big Bachannal of Avenue B, and in my Tribute to Marilyn
I wrote this Homage to Jack. You can hear me sing it on Soundcloud: The Arab Queen mounts her menage
Festooned with accessories
Brandishing a fantasy cock
She develops her personality here
In New York
Sex in the Raw
An aesthetic so extreme
A Dream within a Creme.
This film is creating your mind
Cocking cocks, bodies, brains
Le Coeur Cru de subterrain
underground
Jolie laid
Seldom paid
Deathless, fine
Detritus Outre
Hey babe
Edit til you bleed
Hold onto your teeth
Le Cinema sacre
Built of tears and trash
Delirious Flash
O Arab Queen
Maria Africa Garcia di sanctus Sia
Distant Star flashing
Beautiful
Blowing softly in our eyes
Tragic magic and sublime
She is sculpting time
So rise sweet smith
Here’s your fame forthwith
Tiresias wise shade
I hear you laughing in your grave
The art core
Opens the door
To view your breathless deathless corpse
We beg for more
Oh Bodies of New York
Encore! Encore!
Naked, Writhing, Dancing,
Singing on the Floor
