Re: Me as punk

Hey!

Punk is a word, if you have to ask what it is, you'll never understand it. (among punk friends it's 'a little bit hipper than hip' -) and.........and SOME PUNKS ARE ONES who might kiss the lepor on the mouth as St. Francis did, and will kill themselves for a two hour performance, where the performer subsidizes the audience who will be mostly poor, and punk is one of the screaming cogs in the wheel of anarchy, Punk is acquainted with the alleyways and hide-outs under bridges where they will find more angels than devils (such as 'angel' poet of the SF alleys and streeets, Sparrow 13, who has 'read poetry' with Julia Vinograd who is a fan of his work. - Punk never thouhtlessly smashes a flower under foot. Punk likes fun. Rhythm, song, dance, cartwheels, skateboard, clowning, John the Baker cookies, jam sessions till guitarists have bloody fingers. All night long! Punk is warm rain in your face and a sweet friend beside you. Punk is someone who fell off the 'norm' chart and has been dangling giddily since then at the edge of the 'below below the below of the underground - thanks to Malvina Reynolds for "below the below" in song) Punks are 'fiercely' heart-first!!!!

funny. i knew back then we freaked out a lot of punks ...that's why dirk had me there for over 3 years on at least a weekly basis. and vale was one of the freaked outs...which this reveals. when i have talked about it, people didn't believe it because vale documented the extreme subcultures in REsearch...so why would i freak him out!?
