than concern that I drive careful
says a lot
Like wood that weathers the winter

The new year’s come to me
something’s going to stir
the stones are coming down
between me and my dream realities
I dropped acid with Freddie
and went as far into it as…
madness and dissolution
I sighed and I waited,
I cannot be disassembled.
I doubt acid holds magic for me anymore
flaming destruction of ego and boundaries
I just wait and survive
proof again of both sanity and folly
We share our roots, Freddie and I
but our futures lie ahead.

Thursday, January 12th, 1984Damn it! I’m getting tired of patience compassion and meditation.— Copyright 1965-2008 by Dennis Gallagher —
I want some lightning and thunder, some trauma and triumph.
I’m tired of being on hold.
Whatever it is I’m supposed to sort out isn’t coming to me
everyone’s deflecting; wishy-washy.
I exercise, I work, I wait and I read.
I love, I age, I lose myself for days at a time.
I want to put the hammer down NOW!
And say, ‘See me, confront me, deal with me’.
Wear me life, don’t just let me age away in a plastic bag.
