casual, driven, spontaneous train-of-thought moment from Kerouac's writing becomes visual, takes on its own life and frees him to move on.

love that.

I do think though, that Old Bull Lee is easier company (and a bit more friendly) than Freud. My v own opinion, though.

Something is Happening | Raymond Carver
Something is happening to me
if I can believe my
senses this is not just
another distraction dear
I am tied up still
in the same old skin
the pure ideas and ambitious yearnings
the clean and healthy cock
at all costs
but my feet are beginning
to tell me things about
themselves
about their new relationship to
my hands heart hair and eyes

Something is happening to me
if I could I would ask you
have you ever felt anything similar
but you are already so far
away tonight I do not think
you would hear besides
my voice has also been affected

Something is happening to me
do not be surprised if
waking someday soon in this bright
Mediterranean sun you look
across at me and discover
a woman in my place
or worse
a strange whitehaired man
writing a poem
one who can no longer form words
who is simply moving his lips
trying
to tell you something

Very much so. This one hasn't taken over completely like the last did, or the one before or the one before.
