sorry ancient east asian/psychedelic/native american/neo-classical/french revolution/new age/beat/mod/american west/transcendentalist/jungian-dada-surrealist/early 60's surf rock culture for pilfering your greatest works into a shitty amalgamation of bullshit non-idealism

good bye past-life neil cassady

i was once like you

or were you once like me?

sad eyes wide with wonder

fiercely mad at a world so deeply in love with

tricked, duped, confused

screaming down dark country roads at the moon

to reveal itself-

show us your secrets!

enlighten us to your mysteries!

save us from the disconnect of humanity

we so struggle to comprehend...

but now i see your sad eyes

fiercely mad

at everyone and everything around you

tearing down the moon and burning cigar holes

through the mysteries

good bye
