Lew Welch just turned up one day, live as you and me. "Damn, Lew" I said, "you didn't shoot yourself after all." "Yes I did" he said, and even then I felt the tingling down my back. "Yes you did, too" I said—"I can feel it now." "Yeah" he said, "There's a basic fear between your world and mine. I don't know why. What I came to say was, teach the children about the cycles. The life cycles. All other cycles. That's what it's all about, and it's all forgot." Anonymous submission.
