April 1. auful cold and rainy. i was going to wright a love letter to Beany and sine Lizzie Toles name to it but i told father about it for fun and he said that it was fourgery and that i cood be prostecuted and sent to jale. so i dident. tonite me and Beany rung five door bells for april fool.

April 2. been trying to get rid of some warts. Pewt says if you hook a piece of pork after dark, rub it on the warts and say arum erum irum orum urum and nurum 3 times turn round twice and throw the pork thru a window, then the warts will all be gone the next day. me and Beany is going to try it tomorrow.

April 3. brite and fair. dident get a chance to hook the pork.

April 4. The band played in the band room to-nite. it was warm enuf to have the windows open and we cood hear it. i sat out in the school yard til 10 oclock to hear it and father came out and walked me home. Beany was mad becaus i cared more for the band than for getting rid of the warts.

A train of thought, in-calculating suicide, or so it looks to me.  Salted with eternal wisdom, not understood by majority. 
In all, a somewhat sad story, me thinks. How much abuse does on have to take, before arriving in such a realm?

OV, please correct me, if I went completely astray, the air is getting thinner by each inhalation, leading me to a fish-breathing... and the light becomes supermorphous.

We're all astray my friend. And yet, somehow we can find our way through this sadness. It need not last forever but for some?
Well...


And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.

My new friend George, who I met on the street busking yesterday. It turns out we had played together once before, a few years back during the Folk Festival and right in front of the Woolworths/International Civil Rights Museum with an impromptu band playing improvisational music. It was wonderful to fly like that.

Speaking of flying, his last quote in this short video:

"I consider myself a houseless person, because within me, I am at home". Thank you Sir George.{#Good-vibes}
