Well, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folk that you know
Well, I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
Well, you know I could never be alone
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Well, when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
Making bets on your Kentucky Derby days
I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
And another girl to take my pain away
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave, ayy
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the US mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Man I love this song. Townes Van Zandt has an amazing version that is hard to find, it was on one of the collections made in the 90's or so. Starts with "Everybody knows this song." It is so heartbreakigly beautiful.

"No one ever wrote like Smith, with his special blend of intense myth-making and rich invention!"—Publishers WeeklyCordwainer Smith was one of the original visionaries to think of humanity in terms of thousands of years in the future, spread out across the universe. This brilliant collection, often cited as the first of its kind, explores fundamental questions about ourselves and our treatment of the universe (and other beings) around us and ultimately what it means to be human.In “Scanners Live in Vain” we meet Martel, a human altered to be part machine—a scanner—to be able withstand the trauma space travel has on the body. Despite the stigma placed on him and his kind, he is able to regrasp his humanity to save another.In “The Dead Lady of Clown Town” we get to know the underpeople—animals genetically altered to exist in human form, to better serve their human owners—and meet D’Joan, a dog-woman who will make readers question who is more human: the animals who simply want to be recognized as having the same right to life, or the people who created them to be inferior.In “The Ballad of Lost C’mell” the notion of love being the most important equalizer there is—as first raised in “The Dead Lady of Clown Town”—is put into action when an underperson, C’mell, falls in love with Lord Jestocost. Who is to say her love for him is not as valid as any true-born human? She might be of cat descent, but she is all woman!And in “A Planet Named Shayol” it is an underperson of bull descent, and beings so mutilated and deformed from their original human condition to be now considered demons of a hellish land, who retain and display the most humanity when Mankind commits the most inhumane action of all.

The dune series was good, but I think he Herbert) should’ve kept it to just one novel
 I went through an Asimov stage. If you go back and read it today you can see how dated it is. It doesn’t translate well
. There’s an author goes by the name of Dan Simmons he writes in multi genres, and he combined science-fiction drama fantasy ,action & horror all into one fantastic novel, called “Hyperion” >>>>
“This book is a stunning master work of literary realisation in the realm of speculative fiction.
I just read it in 2022 and found every small part of the story stands up to the test of time in a somewhat disturbing manner. This is very rare of books of this genre written over 30 years ago.
The writing is lyrical with every word and punctuation playing its part beautifully. It's an easy read, even if the stories are disturbing. the characters are skilfully realised and engaging and interesting, though maybe not people you would be comfortable getting to close to and spending to much time with.
The stories each character tells are each uniquely rendered in their voice from their heart. Each has its own painful beauty.
I could say much more yet my own words are not sufficient; all I can say is please read this book.
While you do be sure to have a collection of John Keats poems close to hand.”
