Memphis Minnie’s, Haight
getting naked doesn’t make you a hippie.
neither does
smoking weed
being an anarchist
believing in eastern religion
kissing people of the same gender
rioting
it’s about loving everything and everyone for their beauty and their potential, and not being afraid to praise or fight to discover and retain that beauty.

“Pieces of What”. That whole album just reminds me of Adan’s apartment and Josh and underage drinking and Hayward and 7-11 and drugs and cold weather and fancy shirts and Ohlone and timelessness
who drove crosscountry seventytwo hours to find out if I had a vision or you had a vision or he had a vision to find out Eternity,
in my dreams you walk dripping from a sea-journey on the highway across America in tears to the door of my cottage in the Western night
O skinny legions run outside. O starry-spangled shock of mercy the eternal war is here. O victory forget your underwear we’re free
