Analysis of Trek Through The Muck

Jerry Wayne Lawrence, Jr. 1978 (Baton Rouge, Louisiana)



Duck The Limb While The Glow Of The Full Moon Fades, 4 Some Reason. The Liquor From My Canteen, I Again, Drink.
Blink Away The Tired. I'm The Last 1, He's The Last 1. I'm Already Used 2 This Swamp's Stink.
Chunk Of Rock Avoided Leads 2 The Snake Stepped On. I Swear I C Some Civilian Girl Having A Soak.
Toke My Cigarette Keying N On The Unfamiliar Sounds Around. A Peculiar Frog Croak.
Black Male Hunting Black Male 4 Final Victory. My Quiet Laughter As I Find A Better Way 2 Track.
Attack. I Already Know I Ain't Hit As I Reflexively Return Fire. 2 Hear His Skull Get Hit Then Crack.
