All The People I have Been and Loved

I've been Charles Bukowski... I've been Ferlinghetti and Ginsburg... been an angel headed hipster... been Delmore Schwartz, Walt Whitman, and Frank Ohara... I've been Sinatra, Dino, Sammy, Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop. I've burned through Barstow on a mad dash to Vegas under an itchy bloodshot sunset... I went bust at the Desert Inn and threw up in the Starlight Lounge at the Stardust... got smacked by dancer at the Sands. Got tossed out of Harold's in Reno...I've been Clark Gable, Red Skeleton, Emmet Kelly, Buster Keaton Elvis and Jim Morrison. But today I feel like being Rod Mckuen... is that so wrong?
