Syracuse last night

crowds booed him.  He turned up, yikes, in one of my dreams.  Sat next to me in our circle of friends at someone's house.  I held by body tightly away from him, guarded my gaze from straying toward his area of the room.  Pale golden coiffure and blue suit.  Ugh  

other dreams were better.  Theta wave music so nice about 4 am.  Bright breezy day; heading to see Art and Karen at Gustos.  Sarah says Don has recovered his trip to the er in concord.  Was having trouble breathing.  Somehow he needed to get ride of five plus pounds of water, diarhetic did it.  Is retention part of heart disease?  

On 218 in James  Awfully good.  Curious whether I will look at any Anne Carson later on?  James is so rich with detail.  Can hear discussions of it with so many people from over the years.  Jim, Phil, many others.  

219 "reading books was the first time I could feel something loving me "  

He puts John Rechy in as source and honorable predecessor and theologian with whom he can agree, disagree, debate.  224 "and because only when another man holds your cock does arousal make sense, and because he fucking can, and because he is queer"

big book, sense of encyclopedia?  bringing all into Anglo world from carib depths
