I was introduced to Brautigan back in the 60's. At the time, he didn't make sense but I picked up some of his books just to impress some of the hippy girls.Once I started reading them I had to have more.
His writings are hard to explain. You just have to try it out for yourself. Even at this juncture in my life I still like to reminisce about how life was back then.
Yes, the Fish Music
A trout-colored wind blows
through my eyes, through my fingers,
and I remember how the trout
used to hide from the dinosaurs
when they came to drink at the river.
The trout hid in subways, castles,
and automobiles. They waited patiently for the dinosaurs to go away.
