In the shadow of those times, br he iwasi the times. br br He became his breath, br said Allen Ginsberg. br How else to become br instrument of the Universe, br mouthpiece of Everything, br br stepping forward br beyond confidence, br act impeccable, br guitar chords like whiskey br voice of sober truth, br br a product of the age br who led br our crop of souls br farther toward ourselves br than we could igoi ourselves.
