Pasadena, CA. 
Talk about ice-stone-cold racism in the '40s n '50s ... Now.
Immersed !& life-saved by !Mommy's Acts ... little-talk. 
How we even danced-in-awe 9 feet from Nat King Cole.
!? At the Pasadena Civic Aud in '56.

A kind of real.
I put 'new' pictures on Flickr every week.

Bob Dylan.
I use Pandora.
Feels like I could find words that pretty-much-sum-it from each of his '60's + songs.
Being a Baroque n Mozart guy - I've mostly 'listened' to 'sounds'.

?! R&B in East Pasadena:
Wilson Jr Hi +  '51+.
Listen to Huggie Boy on our radios.   Wolf Man Jack.
Three little whities ride the trolly & bus to LA's Vernon At Central record store.
Buy R&B 45's to bring back  for selves   and 7th grade parties.
We found LittleRichard in mid '50's.
He fucking came to Pasadena in '56.
We got front row. 
All by himself  the Man was explosive  messianic. 
Danced   balanced his piano-chair  up in his mouth.
Seems we imported black R&B to the lil-ole-white-ladies-of-East Pasadena.
Some of their children can still be heard sayin' "Nigger"   if you listen.
Joined the army to get out of town.
Berkeley next.
Now  you sign books & I'm invited.
Stay well Joel Selvin.
And Thank you for this back-in-our-day picture at Vernon and Central.

Dream.
I have recurring classroom dreams.
Usually 5-7 AM.
I am frantically rearranging the furniture.
Class starts in minutes.
Wildly I have no plan for the lesson.
This time:
Alone in this big yellowish, off-white room.
High ceiling, bare walls, white tables, no supplies.
People I can't see, "Your father is having an attack."(? Heart-choking-seizure)
My father's severed head is brought in, put on a table in front of me.
They, "The only way to save him, we had to cut off all the rest."
If he's to live, it's understood, I must to give him mouth-to-mouth.
I do it. It's not ghastly. He pukes up some bile. Starts to breath.
Me, "He's not dead."
He does not speak or look at me. The breathing head.
I think, "This won't work. A head can't survive.
? How the fuck does a head do things. ? How can I care for a head.
I can't."
I put the head on it's side and cover it with a cloth.
I see that it tries to stay alive.
I decide not to help ... and wake up.
