It is very hard to find Richard Brautigan on the Internet. I put this here, mostly, so that I could find it again if I ever lost my book. You can read it if you want. Really... I don't mind. Just remember, it's NOT FOR YOU. HAHAHAHAHA


"All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace"

I like to think (and
the sooner the better!)
of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky.


I like to think
(right now, please!)
of a cybernetic forest
filled with pines and electronics
where deer stroll peacefully
past computers
as if they were flowers
with spinning blossoms.


I like to think
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal
brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.



"The Beautiful Poem"


I go to bed in Los Angeles thinking about you.


Pissing a few moments ago
I looked down at my penis
affectionately.


Knowing it has been inside
you twice today makes me
feel beautiful.
