Filling Station

Paroles
Oh, but it is dirty! --this little filling station Oil-soaked, oil-permeated To a disturbing, over-all Black translucency Be careful with that match! Father wears a dirty Oil-soaked monkey suit That cuts him under the arms And several quick and saucy And greasy sons assist him (it's a family filling station) All quite thoroughly dirty Do they live in the station? It has a cement porch Behind the pumps, and on it A set of crushed and grease- Impregnated wickerwork; On the wicker sofa A dirty dog, quite comfy Some comic books provide The only note of color-- Of certain color. They lie Upon a big dim doily Draping a taboret (part of the set), beside A big hirsute begonia Why the extraneous plant? Why the taboret? Why, oh why, the doily? (Embroidered in daisy stitch With marguerites, I think And heavy with gray crochet.) Somebody embroidered the doily Somebody waters the plant Or oils it, maybe. Somebody Arranges the rows of cans So that they softly say: ESSO--SO--SO--SO To high-strung automobiles Somebody loves us all
