HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NEAL CASSADY
![](http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6781/2024/400/cassady.ginsberg.0.jpg)
Born in Salt Lake City
Eighty years ago today
In a fast-moving cross-country car
Or so you told us.
Were you alive, you'd be toothless, bloated
A disappointment
Not the young and handsome
Neal we know
Disheveled, drunk and Devil-may-care
Eternally tossing that hammer
Up into the air...
