Mike Nestor
1976 March
from Corona Calif to Akron, Ohio
No money & sore.  I am hungry

I went backpacking alone 
in the Grand Canyon for 35 
days, during which time I saw 
not one person. Now I have 
come back to civilization, 
but I am lost.  It is the wrong 
world.  My old friends 
don't exist and the face 
of reality has changed.  
I take this to be a sign. 
The world is a hoax and 
an illusion, merely a dream.  
It is only a training ground 
and a test. You must work 
on yourself if you wish 
to wake up to true reality 
when you die. Not all 
caterpillars become butterflies. 
Do you think this message is for someone 
else but you who only will read it before 
it fades away?

Second Pole:

Rednecks are against the laws of God
and mankind.  They breed and teach
their innocent children their
redneck ways against the laws of
nature.  Teaching them bigotry, prejudice,
hate.  Unwilling to let their minds
grow freely and healthy thus fearing
the happiness and freedom of our Gypsy
souls they scorn and pass us by.
Woe unto the rednecks for they shall be
undone!!

Brazo from Ventura

I was born down south
on a chicken farm near 
Nashville Tenn
Wern't nobody there, but a sky 
full of air 17 billion chickens and me.  
Then one day I said hey, hey, hey,
Think I'll drop some LSD.  
It helped(?) my mind
I got real kind and set all my chickens free.
There were chickens in the fields, 
chickens in the barn,
chickens in the cauliflower, 
chickens in the corn,
chickens driving caddallacs to Washington when I set my chickens free
