A Supermarket in California by Allen Ginsberg

What thoughts I have of you tonight, Walt Whitman, for I walked
down the sidestreets under the trees with a headache self-conscious looking at the full moon.
In my hungry fatigue, and shopping for images, I went into the neon
fruit supermarket, dreaming of your enumerations!
What peaches and what penumbras! Whole families shopping at
night! Aisles full of husbands! Wives in the avocados, babies in the tomatoes!
--and you, García Lorca, what were you doing down by the watermelons?

I saw you, Walt Whitman, childless, lonely old grubber, poking
among the meats in the refrigerator and eyeing the grocery boys.
I heard you asking questions of each: Who killed the pork chops?
What price bananas? Are you my Angel?
I wandered in and out of the brilliant stacks of cans following you,
and followed in my imagination by the store detective.

Something New Under the Sun by Steve Scafidi
It would have to shine. And burn. And be
a sign of something infinite and turn things
and people nearby into their wilder selves
and be dangerous to the ordinary nature of
signs and glow like a tiny hole in space

to which a god presses his eye and stares.
Or her eye. Some divine impossible stretch
of the imagination where you and I are one.
It would have to be something Martin Buber
would say and, seeing it, point and rejoice.

It could be the mouth of a Coca-Cola bottle
or two snakes rolling down a mountain trail.
It would have to leap up out of the darkness
of a theater and sing the high silky operatic
note of someone in love. And run naked

slender fingers through the hair of a stranger,
or your mother or father, or grandfather, or
a grassy hill in West Virginia. It would live
on berries and moss like a deer and roam

The Golden Road Salutes Dr. Strangely Strange

1/10/10

Like Pigpen used to sing, "I asked my doctor, just what I had..." And what was the eternal answer? "All you need...all you really need is GOOD LOVE!" Well, that and some good healing vibes to the good Dr. Strangely Strange.

Ol' Doc Strange took a spill and will be on the mend for a spell. When he's ready, we'll get him back on the air here at The Dirt. In the meantime, this edition of The Golden Road is dedicated to him with all the bells, whistles and transportational sounds that you might expect from us crazy's down here at the station. We begin on Earth, and then sail off for another land in the distant galaxy.

Be well, Doc...see you on the flip side!

Aquarius retrospective on 'Speakeasy'

A look back at Aquarius on next 'Speakeasy'

Michael Diamond is the guest on the Jan. 6 edition of "Speakeasy," a local talk show that airs Wednesdays at 10 a.m. on KDRT-LP, 95.7 FM in Davis. The show is also streamed live and archived at http://kdrt.org.

Diamond was one of the original owners of Aquarius, a downtown business that closed last month after several owners and more than 20 years in business. Diamond recently shared some of his thoughts in an article featured in The Enterprise. During the radio interview, he'll have a chance to get a little more in depth as to what Aquarius meant to him, personally, as well as to our downtown.

Hosted by Autumn Labbe-Renault, Speakeasy features profiles of people doing positive work in Davis and beyond.
