Sublimation (Will You Miss Me?)

I walked through life in tighty-pants.
Never took my pecker out.
Well, what happened then?

Did you get converted?
          I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last.
          Will you miss me when I’m gone?
I met some cool cats.
Learned how to play country music. 

Bought a Magic Theater ticket.
Johanna was in it.
          I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last.
          Will you miss me when I’m gone?
The bookstore cats were in it too.
They had marvelous stamina for literature! 
Johanna was my fem-gendered self.
I loved her beyond measure.
          I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last.
          Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Johanna had another lover named Lucifer.
I was jealous, but she said keep it cosmic.
I still didn’t take my pecker out.
We were chaste as the heart of Beatrice.
          I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last
          Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Then Johanna had to go.
Worlds separated us, but the illusion lived.

Johanna’s a bright star in the firmament now,
a special magnet drawing my spaceship to her.
          I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last
          Will you miss me when I’m gone?
