peregrinations

you’d have to be a goddam fool to ignore the benefits of leaving town

think of the travel along the west coast from seattle vancouver bc
south to mexico city san diego los angeles san francisco
to boston new york city and back to seattle then south
to albuquerque santa fe north to minneapolis and those only the cities 

towns are full of bigots and psychos of every stripe including officials
and so many homes cook what they sell and use what kills them
albeit slowly using no needles

bobby had to be on the road like kerouac without cassidy
bobby could drive but why not take busses they stopped everywhere
