I love Diane's work. I had the privilege of getting to know her just a bit from Buddhist retreats in the Santa Cruz mountains. A lovely person.

thanks for this, love this poem and glad to be reminded of it. Just a point of information though: Memoirs of a Beatnik is not a collection of poems, it's an autobiography interspersed with remarkably strong and imaginative sex scenes (inserted at the request of publisher Maurice Girodias). quite a read.
