confidential to Sleepwalk in Seattle:

órale pues—I'll see you in the K-Mart's, ése. by the synthesizers.

i'll be busting some hall&oates riffs, maybe you can lay down some dope-ass egyptian lover kraftwerk afrika bambaataa beats. by then hopefully we are not old decrepit viejitos too broke down and blind to remember where/how exactly the wagon busted along the oregon trail in the 1st place.

[they're dropping off now, one by one, the more you change, the more they want you to stay the same, i.e., etc., and there's no way to prevent this kind of loss, all you can do is give them the chance to accept you now and then let them walk away, if that's what they want, and plus, you know, attachment, suffering, enlightenment, the circle, karma, friendships dissolving, families dissolving, individual dissolving, ego dissolving, nothing more to hold onto, scary shit, they don't know how to grasp you anymore, finding themselves attached to the void, directing anger fear pain suffering at you, but you're not even there anymore, it's you five years ago, ten, twenty years ago that they see/hear/smell, and soon everything between you is a non sequitor because they're talking to a shadow, a ghost, You circa 1985, and everything they hear from you is filtered through a long-dead past, they do not hear what's really coming out of your mouth eyes heart, a case of mistaken identity, two shadows blocking each other from the sun, full moon overhead, an empty death dance, invisible in the dark]
