phuquenut In November of 1971 I found myself hitch hiking walking down a michigan highway with everything I was taking with me on my way to independent freedom. it was about 25 degrees and snowing lightly. I got a ride into the northwest side of grand rapids. I called my friend Bear and presto I had a place to sleep. It was just off wealthy east of fuller. It saw the start of freedom. I had been washing dishes at the local Elks Club. I found a 1948 Indian Chief . All I had to do was trade my hot rod 305 honda. {faster than any bike on the west side at the time} and 100 bucks. My Mom got wind of this and called everyone I knew and threatened their lives. You guessed it I didnt get the bike. A week later she called and admitted the whole thing. She offered to sign for any "car" I wanted. I got a 1963 Cadillac hurse {white} . this around the time that my friend first brought MDA to town. This was the days of silver lake . Drug crazed insanity around a small inland lake west of Hart Michigan. At that time I was working in a plastic's plant call Leon Chemical. I was making good money working a 40 hour week... but I was at the sours of the "love Drug" So every time I went north I took my friends and all the good Drugs we could put together. I worked 2nd shift. So , I would get out at about 11:30 pm. we would meet at my shit apartment on the corner of National and California . wWe would load up all the<b> booze </font></b>and pot , and position all the prision time stuff in places that we could make them disappear . Then we would head north. how it always started was I would light up a hookah. We all opened beers and started sharing the best of what we brought. By the time we hit US31 north we were revved up. Once we were headed north the music went up and the peddle went to the floor. My spedo went to 160. I would hit that seconds after getting on to US31. The pedal would stick to the floor at hammer down because this massive motor had never seen "hammer down" I unbleached a 475 Cadillac ambulance. If you have ever gone north on US31 through Muskegon you noticed that it has several high points as well as the lows that follow. We experienced thees like a carnival ride . When we went over the top of a rise, for a brief second everyone behind the front seat would be weightless.... then they would drop back to their seats. This is when I realized that feeling alive only happened when death was imminent. At this point I have to confess.... When I was about 10 I had scarlet fervor. I remember most of the hallucinations.I viewed the world from above for a couple of days. At the end of it , once my mom broke the fever with cold rags I saw myself as an old man sitting in a hospital room. I was really old . That was when I realized I was going to live longer than I really wanted to. If I was reckless before this is what lead to the behavior I just described to you. Once we would reach silver lake we would ride the circuit adounr the lake and back to the dunes.... more to come. need to sleep  |
