So many apparently contradictory emotions and points of view going on in my mind when I wrote this. Never planned to get old, didn’t think much about it other than it was some kind of romantic thing sitting by the fireplace enjoying some kind of peace and wisdom as a result of hard labor as hippies, activists, psychedelic adventurers from the ‘60s and ‘70s, enlightened, humanitarian, educated and worldly. Never planned to have at once, white hair, aching bones, and the hardcore spirit of rock n roll still coursing through me more clearly, more intensely, more defined and more demanding at this point in my life. In fact, it burns harder than ever because I see the sweetness, the bitterness, the joy, the fragility of it all….and I’m a bit better at my craft so I can rock harder, which I plan to do. The fire is still raging on.
