Jack Kerouac saw life in all its wondrous beauty and sadness. he streamed his consciousness into his writing. through his prose. he captured the raw truths and the lonely landscapes. all with a childlike fascination that flowed onto the page. seemingly uninterrupted at times . . .

🎶so why does it come as such a shock
to know you really have no one
only a river of changing faces
looking for an ocean
they trickle through your leaky plans
another dream over the dam
and you're lying in some room
feeling like your right to be human
is going over too🎶

the view out my window changes but never changes. the outlook sometimes sunny. sometimes gloomy. people come and go but mostly don't see me. but that's okay. I'm deaf to their words. done with their ways. lost to their world. a leaf blown upon fickle winds . . .

they know all the things that you don't know. they say you can learn them if only you listen to them. but listening to them makes you feel dumb. so you cut yourself off from their noise and live in your head. your brain begins to decay but you are free of them . . .

a few recent bargains from the local charity bookstalls. Doctor Sax by Jack Kerouac is an autobiography of growing up in Lowell, Massachusetts which sits nicely with The Town & the City which I am #currentlyreading. Fear & Loathing will follow on nicely after that

this constant conversation we have
about life
and I don't want to be there when
you marry
and I won't need to know your
children
there's enough of this living to be
going on and on with
the way we make it happen
the way it is for you not me
so tiring
that's why I want release . . .

so, my characters often say "so" in dialogue. I'm guessing a creative writing course would knock that off the page. but that's the way they talk. so the so-and-sos stay. sometimes I put a comma after the so. sometimes not . . .

I work through travel plans in my head but invariably back out of actually seeing them through. like taking the train to London to see an exhibition. I visualise the process of buying tickets online (no idea). getting to the station. the journey. the hotel. eating out. the museums. even shopping . .
my final dream of the night played out like a metaphor for my life. after weaving in and out of traffic and negotiating a wobbly plank across a river I could finally see my destination through a thicket of trees. however it was at this point that I chose to turn back . . .

Daisy at the checkout wearing her face mask today. immunosuppressed or neurotic. or maybe she doesn't want to infect her customers. she asked me if I was able to find everything I needed. you might recall the grocery store is having a refit. not sure I like the changes but hey I'm getting old . . .
