A Supermarket in California<\/h3>\n

By Allen Ginsberg<\/a><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

What thoughts I have of you tonight, Walt Whitman, for I walked down the sidestreets under the trees with a headache self-conscious looking at the full moon.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In my hungry fatigue, and shopping for images, I went into the neon fruit supermarket, dreaming of your enumerations!<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0What peaches and what penumbras! Whole families shopping at night! Aisles full of husbands! Wives in the avocados, babies in the tomatoes!\u2014and you, Garcia Lorca, what were you doing down by the watermelons?<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I saw you, Walt Whitman, childless, lonely old grubber, poking among the meats in the refrigerator and eyeing the grocery boys.<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I heard you asking questions of each: Who killed the pork chops? What price bananas? Are you my Angel?<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I wandered in and out of the brilliant stacks of cans following you, and followed in my imagination by the store detective.<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0We strode down the open corridors together in our solitary fancy tasting artichokes, possessing every frozen delicacy, and never passing the cashier.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Where are we going, Walt Whitman? The doors close in an hour. Which way does your beard point tonight?<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(I touch your book and dream of our odyssey in the supermarket and feel absurd.)<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Will we walk all night through solitary streets? The trees add shade to shade, lights out in the houses, we’ll both be lonely.<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Will we stroll dreaming of the lost America of love past blue automobiles in driveways, home to our silent cottage?<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Ah, dear father, graybeard, lonely old courage-teacher, what America did you have when Charon quit poling his ferry and you got out on a smoking bank and stood watching the boat disappear on the black waters of Lethe?<\/em><\/p>\n
