13. I USED TO LIKE TO TELL STORIES AND LISTEN:
E flat hep cat Charlie Mingus Parker Monk whether invert or not 'Rise and SHINE!!' I heard it said : the stated reply was 'easy for YOU to say you don't have a dick' and William Burroughs told me - in speaking about his wished-for paradise and the 'past' one can never get back he said "what I want for dinner is a bass fished from Lake Huron in the 1920's" and somehow I knew EXACTLY what he meant (but all I could do was nod and bait the hook) - an amazing and instant regard for nostalgia and for a time that can never be had again - and then he sat me down and nearly spitting into my face said "and FURTHERMORE trying to learn things about the world from reading a newspaper is like trying to tell time by reading the second hand on a clock - recurring constant and shortsighted over and over as hell would be if you let it be!!" (that's the way he talked to me).
