The more pissed I am .. the farther I walk
Reading Leonard Michaels's diaries "Time Out of Mind"
I've given myself a 'Blog' time out.

Science I love . again and again
The amazing chemistry of dreams:
I wake up early . just now . slowly . so I remember
I am in a high school art class as an outsider-visitor-helper
It's critique time
The work is carefully put up. to see
I wander out and down the hall to another art classroom
Walk in and move around the edges looking at each piece on three walls
What am I doing ?! .Run back
They're watching a fine art film . I watch . Rembrandt lighting beauty
Lights on
I look at each of their drawings on the wall
The quality is remarkable
Starting to wake up . realizing . somehow .I create
Two complete art shows with unique .wonderful pictures
A poignant film .within
A cast of.engaging teen charactersI get to do it again

Pictures going everywhere
Pictures being seen

My sleep-chem-events make up for piles

Childhood Story:
5 years old - July 4th 1943 Rose Bowl
A treat - Mom takes me to the 4th of July ExtravaganzaIt's
packed and dark ..
Blacked out where kids play football on the grass
Flash.Twitch.Terror
Fireworks explode all over Japanese village huts people
Huge noises.. fighting.. fires..smoke..running soldiers ..rifles.. tanks ..figures ..cannons ..carnage
Screaming fighter planes..bombs .
Bodies collect
Lights on.
Trash everywhere.
Let's go home
The Lives of Millions..since forever
'News' videos....movie 'Trailers'....video 'Games'
Jaw-droppersHearts and souls ...
We are home

Childhood Story:
South Central 1946.
In my face...gut
My father takes me too see the Harlem Globetrotters
His pure-self: "see-the-jungle-bunnies-with-watermelon"
Luckily .I have no idea
It is the most amazing . thrilling..unforgettable
He must know . I am lost to his world
Shadeless 97 degree sidewalk
East 14th is one of my routes
Two serious prostitutes .walking towards me ..pass by
Go in a shop ....come out . go by me
WhiteTshirt guy follows them sayin's"Come here" .
One of the women does stop and talk
The defiant woman walks on a block .. stops.
I pass her .....I look back .... flash
WhiteT and a woman squeal up in an old hoopty
Jump out..start beating on her.. trying to drag her in
This woman will not be put into the car.. 5 minutes10 people are close .watching
Cool red car pulls up ..calm driver-dude gets out .Takes her hand ..leads her . puts her in ..drives off
'beaters' .standing ..talkin' shit . makin' signs .....
End public part ... I'm. full ........and wondering how race matters

I Do Not Control This Head
Two days ago I write the migraine story below
Yesterday I have a real nice classic migraine
First one in way over a year
Childhood Story:
Small ones start when I'm 12
Only 1-2 a year - lucky
When I'm 41 . I find out what they're called
1953 - my first .'real-big' .Classic MigraineMidland School ..hot May . oaks n brown hills .
Weekend work ..clearing brush around the swimming hole
My vision starts to go ..zig zag aura ..I gotta go lie down .fast
In fifteen minutes I can't see much
Speech and memory leaving ..to arrive soon at close to zero
I make it down to the horse barn and find a pile of hayDamn! ...Right now ...Far from what ...I'm gonna die
Nether head .... It's still magic here .
Darker . cooler ..barn smells. ..horse sounds
Breathing .
