This is really beautiful! I loved it all, especially the references to the Beat poets.

Thank you! :D I have a soft spot for Ginsberg, and I love his free verse.

Thank you. :) I'm pleased you liked it. The Ginsberg poem fits quite nicely, doesn't it?

Oh, this is lovely! And written so fluidly and beautifully that it was less like reading and sort of more like experiencing, which I'm not sure makes sense, but which I mean in a positive way!

Thank you so much. :) I tried to make the language as evocative as possible. Yay!
