"He taught white America to get down."
       ---James Brown

this book is dedicated to The White Trash Coven of
New Jersey for their Elvis Altar, and to
The Magic Elvis Club of Kenya

This morning we stand outside the gates to Graceland singing "How Great Thou
Art." Elvis brings us together from France, China, England, Israel, Mexico,
and yes Philadelphia. Finally the guard comes to let us in, shaking his head.
I turn to a woman, "You know, when we sing 'How Great Thou Art' we're singing
to Elvis, not Jesus." She smiles, "Oh, you know it Brother!"

MORE THAN ANYTHING
more than anything, anything at all
I want permission from Lisa Marie to
spend one night in His bedroom,
on the floor, next to His bed,
naked, dressed in a body condom,
imagining I'm His happy little sperm,
after He's gone to sleep,
pressed to my condom wall,
looking to the moonlit window,
quietly, peacefully turning from a
thick, white, almond flavored cream
to a clear, sticky puddle,
the expired egg seeker,
once blissfully shot from
His hardened, kingly shaft,
oh man what a ride!
