                             Rose II
                  I find it in the reality of her
                  that when she looks on me
                  its a good place to be
                  and so I clove to her
                  that the me she saw
                  could be...

1972-03-18 – Acid Thoughts –

Saturday, March 18th, 1972
                          - Acid Thoughts -
            We lie scattered in the midst of our own clues
            and say, huh?
            The newspapers and the TV are all we have made them
            as by life, we go on creating.
            Every picture tells a story, don't it?
            What is the sound of one hand clapping?
            Where should I be then?
            Caught in their scream to be
            or gently smiling...
            Somewhere where I went looking so hard
            I lost what I was seeking and fell down
            laughing into all that was left.

1973-07-07 Acid again

Saturday, July 7th, 1973
 
                         Acid again

            Psychic or what...when I can look in
              at cupboards and feel love.

            Laughing in the face of joy
              I've turned away so many times
                 to find it just there...

            Insanity comes in a pill
              but why make it real?

            I saw the spokes of the wheel coming together
              witchcraft...intellectualism...egotism...
            all lead to what we keep
              in our pills
            and we can't quite wait to get there,
              can we?

            Insanity at 10,000 watts, just another
              weapon in our arsenal.
