![Page 3: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
I\M
this is hugh
he writes cool poetry
and reads it
in the red dog
that's a coffee .shop
he's my father

this is marcia
she's a swingin' chick
she's my mother
she makes sculptures out
of tin cans
parts of cars
and other
things
that

I
this is one of marcia's sculptures
it's a gas isn't it?
marcia stayed up one whole night with it
she had a true spiritual
experience i mean like you can see the cat really
dug something there
![Page 8: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

i think this would be a crazy spot to print one
of hugh's poems
(he'll flip like he's never
been published before)
In
The
Beginning
There WAS an end
So like man
Cain didn't MURDER
His crazy brother
The
Whole
Thing was a
FANTASTICSUICIDE. .

i take after hugh mostly
i mean i write

this is one of my latest paintings
marcia thinks it's too representational

i dig life the most
i mean like it really swings
but there are some little conventions even hugh can't
do anything about
like school
man is that a drag
particularly miss shoemaker my teacher
oh man
is she nowhere

this goofball
in my class
henry martin
(this is him
reading
the latest
dr. seuss)
he is
square
personified

the other day i asked him what he thought of jack kerouac
you know what henry did—
he looked at me like this

ill

like they're always doing draggy things
mman it is so meaningless

r
school is a real hang up
like last week
we had to write
something
about dogs
so
i wrote this poe
and read it to the class
u know what happened
ter i read it
17
![Page 17: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

how square
miss shoemaker is

terl
tthis was the poem:
Like we all know about DOGS
With their crazy FOUR legs
And with that wild TAIL
r And we PET them and things
P But who cares about FOUR legs
And a TAIL when all they do
Is
Jiiffll
r the publishers are a bit square themselves

the next day henry asked me to accompany
him on an adventure or two as he put it
the first stop was to be a dancing school
he went to on Wednesday afternoons some wild adventure
i have to admit i was sort of paniky-like when
he said it was on e. 64th street i mean like i'd
never been above 14th street and worse than that i didn't
know anyone who had
all at once a part of me
hated henry
for
that

then the worst came
henry said we'd have to take the subway
i'd heard about them—
—seen the signs—
—but never been on one
well—i couldn't let him know i was afraid
I22
![Page 22: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
a train came in mightier than a ginsberg poem—
—and then we were on it
23
![Page 23: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
i held on to henry's jacket and all kinds of cats were pushing on us
so i could hardly breathe—
—man—
what henry miller could have made of that scene
24
![Page 24: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
henry made me hip to the fact that the money
his mother gave him for taxis to
dancing school he saved for comic books
she wouldn't let him have
after changing subways
and
walking a few blocks
we finally got to the
dancing school

when henry opened the door
the first person i saw was
miss Caroline perfect
the teacher
well this chick v/as really way out
i mean like out of this century
henry introduced us
then she quickly showed me a seat on the
sidelines
26
![Page 26: Suzuki Beane](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050616/546a63caaf795980298b46a4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

she went to the piano—
—nodded to the piano player
(who looked like a male miss shoemaker)
tapped her cane

then all these funny looking cats
took partners
and began to dance

well
i could hardly keep from breaking up
i mean you should have dug that bit——
it was hard to tell who was dragging who around the floor
but man
that's what they were doing
and like the best part was the way they were dressed
like it was some kind of outer space ball

like dancing is the swingingest and i didn't want these cats
to miss out so i showed them i made my own music man i mean
every cat should make his own music so i said out loud

then
i felt this thing around my neck
it was Caroline perfect's cane

i ducked out of that and
grabbed henry
we're splitting the scene i yelled
and we cut out

outside i flipped remembering miss perfect's face
henry just stood there
until i stopped laughing

then he said
oh suzuki
why did you do that
•
how will i ever go back
i asked him if he really wanted to go back
he smiled sort of quiet-like and shook his head
no
we both laughed then

i thought henry would probably live in square village!W:
but he didn't
he lived in a whole house
before we rang the bell henry warned me to behave
he said his mother was having her W.A.E.T.C.P.P.A,
i said i was sorry and he said no-no
it meant
Wednesday-Afternoon-Evening-Tea-and-Cocktail-Poetry and Prose Advancement

henry showed me where the party was and he hid behind
a curtain
i looked because i had never seen a W.A.E.T.C.P.P.A,
before

it looked pretty draggy
helen took our coats and then we crept closer and
listened

some woman was making an announcement

as you all know she was saying this meeting of the
W.A.E.T.C.P.P.A. is honoring the new and absolutely enchanting young
poet James—lucien—androcles—palmer third——and i've persuaded
Jamie to read us one of his newest
everybody oohed and aahed and then this tall thin cat walked

slowly to the front of the room
took out a pair of horn rims
a sheet of paper from his inside pocket
and read

this was the poem:
The Summering Seeds
Finally through a deprecated dawn we knew
Sun spots, yellow tears that would drown us
Had we not already been many times vulcanized,
Had we not been Christians clamoring for further light
How simple the kiss-octagonal and new
To us, never ceasing our call for spiral stalks
Of poppies bright tight blossom. We sat.
Having debased our natural grey passage
The numbed man sought solace between his toes.

how utterly enchanting
now the whole time this chick was talking i couldn't take my eyes
off her i mean it was like crazy
she never moved her lips

i didn't listen to anything he said after that because
i decided he was Just plain silly
nobody knew better than i did that i liked henry
and then i remembered what henry had said before he left and i knew
that he was practically right
i mean together me and henry understood more about
love
and
life
than hugh and marcia and Jason and cynthia
(who really weren't so different)
put together

at lunch i told henry my idea and he dug it right away
henry and i were going on the road
and wherever we went we would get other kids
who weren't allowed to be people and by the time we got to
the coast we'd have enough kids to start our own village
where a square could be a square and a swinging cat
could swing in peace and kids could feel things because they do
we each went off to get our gear
i told henry to be sure and bring some food
