The Flaneur can't get enough
of that spooky beatnik stuff
Call the exterminator
William S. Burroughs
The dead end of town
Thrift Shop costumery
Get your attention
Black cat vase
Old LP
the great great Hank Williams
Bet a guy
ends up
wearing this
Grotesque witch
figurine
Ties that bind
See you later
Look familiar?
The Haunted Rectory
The minister lived here
with his wife,
fire and brimstone
The legend goes
the wife took on
a young lover
Vengeance
is mine
sayeth the lord
The old ones say
he walled-up his rival,
up in here
The wife disappeared as well
they say he cooked and...
well just an old wives tale
I'm sure
Ah Sunflower
weary of time
Guerilla art
with a gentle nature
A wish fulfilled
What are you banging for?
Can't you see it's closed?
On a magic carpet ride
Tattoo Parlor
I'm going to
go to heaven
in my own skin
Lydia O Lydia
the tattooed lady
used to know Groucho
Belly dancer
I hear she's dating
the snake-charmer
Fan dancer
Sally Randy
The redeemer
of a parallel
dimension
Tantric tattoos
Bye-bye
Metaphysical vapor
emporium
Berkeley may
appear to be
rather extravagant
But we watch the World Series
one ghostly game at a time
just like the rest of the Nation
I bought myself a flask
it reads:
"Tetch of the Crate-chur"
There's no denying
we are a party town
replete with menacing clowns
Shop selling love potions,
hexes, Spanish fly,
and Mickey Finns
A touch of decadence
of unbridled sensuality
Where does it all lead?
To perdition and remorse?
