"Have you ever kissed a panther?" (1 Viewer)

I'm not a particularly big fan of this poem, but just found two lines in the version from 'Me And Your Sometimes Love Poems', that are missing in the Mockingbird'-version.

These are:
"you with your little dyed blondes"
and
"as your cock moves against the edge of Nirvanna"

I just wondered how the oldest printed version - New York Quarterly No. 7, 1971 - compares to that.

Roni, those two lines appear in the original mss. I can only wonder who dropped them for book publication.

thanks cire. Do you know, what NYQ was printing?
