Nude and Naked Lunch
"Nude and Naked Lunch"
Like I mentioned before--stream of consciousness is mistake-ridden. Wait an hour before reading my Blogs, unless you're the FBI. I'll get them under control, but like Kerouac told his criticizing publisher concerning his mistakes: "These are words dictated to me by the Holy Spirit Itself!"
Too, he informed William Burroughs that he had over a million words. William fancied himself an intellectual. Kerouac, picking up on this during a meal, stabbed a piece of meat and put it in Burroughs's face, proclaiming: "You know what this is--this is naked lunch!" Thus, the weirdest, most gay book was born.
Ginsberg and possibly Burroughs visited Kerouac while he was living with his Mom and wrote him off as a drunk so lore wends thataways; regardless, Ginsberg and Bob Dylan visited Kerouac's grave, Dylan muttering: "Oohhughhh--I wanna Unmarked Grave baby."
