Allen Ginsberg, and some other corpses.
those who approach me with love,
the son of man,
the antichrist,
all sorts of saints and artists,
angels that sit in the back row,
lovers and analysts,
people that help me accomplish good or produce,
people who are sharply aware they are fulfilling function, but are warmed by one love of humanity and cosmos to give truth to me.
one hell of a motherfucker.
people with very few expectations.
the sexy.
the retreatists.
anarchists.
muses and fetishes.
existentialist trippers.
raging crazy men.
people who want to dance and will.
people who know the tricks and love to share.
pilgrims who come in open fellowship.
the ridiculously rich and generous,
adventurers, pirates, ninjas, and fools,
the honest and open to a fault,
pure souls breathing beauty,
monsters and sadistic fucks,
people defending the rights of others.
revelers in good wine, good food, and good company.
gatekeepers opening doors of opportunity and perception.
masters of discipline,
great lovers
and great teachers.
