was writing all the time. words written in sand on paper in air spoken recorded or written in the sky still exist.even those not heard read or thought. neal was tapped into some sort of primal image bank. jack set up the account.burroughs taught him how to make withdrawls.Kesey told him to give it all away.He did.what is the best part of that first third? excerpts at the end about death masks or . . . .spirits. . . (what is the word he used?)
Yes you are right about Kerouacs Dr, Sax and the use of image. Jack paints with words of a preschool thought process that i always felt very strongly,it must be universal,no? do you remember not just being four or five but how you thought at four or five? that book takes me there. LTA minpgh
