(Oval insert text/poem:
the shadow knows
(for Ron English)
look on each act as
future history, look on
everything, & judge. eat
their food, not words,
drink all you can use
dope, look them in the face
& laugh.(& if you can
keep from crying, love them
so they won/t understand you.
wear long hair, weird
clothes, look back at all
times, when they breathe
down yr neck,
duck.
my friends.
love/Cranston)
