Jack Kerouac


2nd Chorus Mexico City Blues

Man is not worried in the middle

Man in the Middle
Is not Worried
He knows his Karma
Is not buried

But his Karma,
Unknown to him,
May end --

Which is Nirvana



Wild Men
Who Kill
Have Karmas
Of ill

Good Men
Who Love
Have Karmas
Of dove

Snakes are Poor Denizens of Hell
Have come surreptitioning
Through the tall grass
To face the pool of clear frogs




Jean-Louis Kerouac (Lowell, Massachusetts, 1922 - St. Petersburg, Florida, 1969) novelista y poeta de la generación Beat.
