From the Vault The Shroud of Zappa - 2007


Zappa Sphinx - Waiting for bread on bakery road of dust.


Zappa the boy grows up out in the Los Angeles dessert.
His buddy is Don Van Vliet .
They dream while they are driving the in Don’s father’s bread truck - the one welcomed by the housewives on the dusty bakery road.
This is a truck which Don will drive for a while.
 Zappa is a lonely boy.
They are buds and they dream on.
Incessantly play R&B.
Johnnie Guitar Watson. The Penguins.
Dwell on things.
Imagine a homemade movie, Capt. Beefhart and the Clay People.


Now you can read the rest of the prose poem
