where 'falcons of the inner eye'
dive and die, glimpsing in their
dying fall, all life's memory of existence.

I have tonight begun reading a stupid, shitty book by Kerouac called Big Sur, and I would give a ball to wake up tomorrow on some empty ridge with a herd of beatniks grazing in the clearing about 200 yards below the house.
