Daily Mirror

Go where the truth is.
Paradise is just the way
things should be.
Children know when 
something's wrong.
Adults think wrong is right,
bad is good...
"they find out when they reach
the top they're on the bottom."
It's stupid simple.

Give please a chance and listen
once in a while, not to me, the wind.
Carpe Diem, a good day for fishing.

I'm not a great poet...Yeats was,
Eliot was; ended up in schools
eliciting oos and ahs...who knows
what they actually said? They were
writing about apocalypse now, to 
show it in human experience with 
words.

Ginsberg's Howl more overt, but we
needed that by then...too many
coffee spoons had gone by.

"The peas that passeth all understanding."
That's what Christ really said...
he was so hungry.

"Humanity i love you because you
are perpetually putting the secret of
life in your pants and forgetting
it’s there and sitting down." eecummings

"What are you rebelling against?"

"Whattya got?"  (Brando)

The prospects of finding someone decent
in the tomasha are limited...
too young and they're spoiled...
too old and they're no good anymore.

There could be a secret pocket of 
goodness somewhere, a cult, but,
it remains hidden...

...like Shambhala that only emerges 
when conditions are ripe, in spite of 
the hype and publicity.

No, this time, era, age, will play itself 
out...the play in which the truth is 
revealed to those with eyes that can see.

"Even Jesus wanted a little more time."
Tom Waits

"Excuse me, but, is this asparagus taken?"
(Jean Cocteau...well...no...
but he might as well could have done)

She throws herself on the grass,
(it's hard to end something that 
never had a beginning)
he lies down next to her.
