Exiled

The ghosts are gone now.
No more car rides across the country.
It's been years.

They were on the pages.
Impressionable, easily swayed to go.
In that convertible '39 LaSalle.

Fell in true love right away.
Another starlight introduction is needed.
Hit me like a bolt.

Just a normal life with friends.
Two year railroad trip to San Quentin.
Smells of the house.

The lady decides.
Carolyn is the truest hero of On The Road.
Allowing the madness.

Two weeks of parties in Denver.
Kicked off to California to work the rails.
Fill up the money pot.

Make a life.
Fill it up with gasoline and cruise back.
Work was seasonal at that time.

Time for good times.
North Beach days, full of eastern visitors.
Direct from the mind.

They had serious lives.
Away from the fictional personalities.
The tide of respectability.

Then the prankster.
Broken hearted and exiled to idolatry.
Seeking the young soul.

"1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Maniacs And Friends

last night i dreamed i forgave everybody for anything ever done anytime before. there were fathers, brothers, sisters, and mothers, not to mention extended family. then the people all around -- toilers, drivers, watchers, lovers, maniacs, and friends. things they did, said, implied, yelled, things they ignored, they insisted, they resisted. i was talking with each of them individually, taking my time, and we were committed. nods and shakes, aknowledgments accepted and replaced with a debt of some sort. a responsibility to forgive others in the same manner, slate picked clean and put up. minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and generations will pass either way.
