More From Jack Kerouac

Thus die i, thus, thus, thus. now am i dead, now am i fled; my soul is in the sky: tongue, lose thy light; moon take thy flight. now die, die, die, die, die.

Changing things is not easy, and i say this without any irony. it is not that someone does not want to, but because it is a hard thing to do. take obama, a forward-thinking man, a liberal, a democrat. did he not pledge to shut down guantanamo before his election? but did he do it? no, he did not. and may i ask why not? did he not want to do it? he wanted to, i am sure he did, but it did not work out. he sincerely wanted to do it, but did not succeed, since it turned out to be very complicated.

We stand there, quiet. my questions all seem wrong: how did you get so old? was it all at once, in a day, or did you peter out bit by bit? when did you stop having parties? did everyone else get old too, or was it just you? are other people still here, hiding in the palm trees or holding their breath underwater? when did you last swim your laps? do your bones hurt? did you know this was coming and hide that you knew, or did it ambush you from behind?

Find out what it means to die - not physically, that's inevitable - but to die to everything that is known, to die to your family, to your attachments, to all the things that you have accumulated, the known, the known pleasures, the known fears. die to that every minute and you will see what it means to die so that the mind is made fresh, young, and therefore innocent, so that there is incarnation not in a next life, but the next day.

I did an after-school special as my first big thing. it was starring butterfly mcqueen. she was the name. but the real star of it was robbie rist, who was that little blond kid who looked like john denver.

I was dead, then alive. weeping, then laughing. the power of love came into me, and i became fierce like a lion, then tender like the evening star.

Solitude is independence. it had been my wish and with the years i had attained it. it was cold. oh, cold enough! but it was also still, wonderfully still and vast like the cold stillness of space in which the stars revolve.
