-Caveat Lector-
Right on, G.
It reminds me of my interview with the dean of students at a university in
southern California during the sixties. He was complaining about the fact
that so many of my generation were resisting the war...he boasted that
"we---I was always interested in what he meant by "we"--- are not going to
make a mistake with the future generations. They will learn to love war,
and they will love to do our bidding. We failed with YOUR
generation, but we won't make the same mistake twice."
Witless me (all of eighteen years old) didn't understand what the hell he
was talking about.... but I've lived to see his little prediction become
a reality. wow....just look at all of the gung ho market animals and
budding fascists that we've produced in the interim. SDS, where are you
now that we need you?
"I have seen the best minds of my generation destroyed by
madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn
looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters, burning for the ancient heavenly
connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery
of night..."
"Howl" Allen Ginsberg
