Reality Sandwiches
08 - 18 Apr 2009
“The method must be purest meat
and no symbolic dressing,
actual visions & actual prisons
as seen then and now.
Prisons and visions presented
with rare descriptions
corresponding exactly to those
of Alcatraz and Rose.
A naked lunch is natural to us,
we eat reality sandwiches.
But allegories are so much lettuce.
Don't hide the madness.”
On Burroughs’ Work
San Jose 1954
Allen Ginsberg
