13th Floor ElevatorsCan't escape this flag waving absurd tragic comedy. As long as you know all the flags are bullshit. So loosen up and relax, let go. Life is too short. Smile. Peace_________________________________

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night . . "

"My theory is that the Communists proved it was impossible to have economic democracy unless you have political democracy and civil liberties. The United States has proved it is impossible to have political democracy and real freedom unless you have economic democracy."

"I really believed - and still believe - that psychedelics played a major part of the transformation that was going on at the time (in the 1960's). They helped change white people's sensibilities in real important ways, deconstructing linear thinking and opening up possibilities."

hey, man, BIRD is dead
they got his horn locked up somewhere
put his horn in a corner somewhere
like where’s the horn, man, where?
second voice
screw the horn
like where’s BIRD?
third voice
gone
BIRD was goner than sound
broke the barrier with a horn’s coo
BIRD was higher than moon
BIRD hovered on a roof top, too
like a weirdy monk he drooped
horn in hand, high above all
lookin’ down on them people
with half-shut weirdy eyes
saying to himself; “yeah, yeah
” like nothin’ meant nothin’ at all
