Signed. I Like to Eat Right on the Dirt contains Danny Lyon's photographs of his children and photographs from his father's albums.

'I like to eat right on the dirt
and let the food fall on my shirt
and wipe my hands upon my pants
and feed the little crumbs to ants
Late at night I watch the stars
and wonder if they're men on Mars
then with my clothing in a heap
I curl up in my tent to sleep'
