Saturday, August 28th, 1976

      I can't seem to escape this falling feel
      in the quite moments when my awareness gets real
      it seems I'm falling thru the days like a leaf
      and I can't seem to land to get some relief.

      Ah, why would I want to come to this place in my life
      so sad and confused and distressed by the knife.
      It never seemed to me that it'd be like this,
      the knife that divides our fun from our pain,
      and its come down on the wrong side again.

      I wonder, in flashes, as the days whirl by
      if I can get it back, the way that I got high,
      by looking in loving detail at all that went by.
