One of the scenes in All That is Sacred, a short film about the artists and writers who got their start in 1970s Key West, shows the last words Jim Harrison wrote as he died. I wasn’t able to decipher the poem but found a transcription here.
In unease the earth turned itself inside
out when its gravity fled. All of us
fell off the earth. I was in Africa
at the time and fell near an elephant.
I made my way to her and stretched
out on her stomach for protection
from the polar cold of the high atmosphere.
I caught a couple of passing
tomatoes to eat and a bottle of whiskey.
The earth used to be God's body
but he took too many wounds and abandoned it.
He left us with the husk we made
of his body like a wasp's nest.
Man shits his pants and trashed God's body•
