Can you find a story in a baggie of pot? Dylan Winslow needs a breakthrough with his paintings. Mitch Hopewell needs to figure out what to do with 312 million dollars. Bubba Ravi Shesha needs to sort out what he believes. Louie Gilder needs someone to love. Me? I need a smoke break. Moving At the Speed Of Time is inspired by the muse, Mary Jane. The stories of an artist, a soul-searching guru, a lottery winner, and an ex-con are intertwined through a meandering tale of consciousness, marijuana smoking and human reality. Moving At the Speed Of Time is full of delightful asides, digressions, and tidbits of cannabis lore.

Welcome to the world of Realistic Hallucinations. On one hand I have an urge to explain this book of poems, but on the other I wish it to be read without any explanation, so take your choice; read this or skip straight to the work itself. What are these "Realistic Hallucinations" and how did they come about ? The title "Realistic Hallucinations" comes from Peter Max's photo collages in the 1960's, and like everything else in this book was appropriated for my own use. These are word collages. Just about every line in this work was composed of lines clipped, cut, pasted, and edited from a variety of pre-printed sources. I stole these lines from all over the place; Tom Wolfe's "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test", Henry Kane's "Fistful of Death", "Sportsman Like Driving" (a drivers-ed handbook), The J. Peterman Catalog, newspaper articles, magazines, junk mail advertisements, etc...And then I added some miscellaneous lines of my own poetry into the mix...

What happened in 2012? Where was the big, end of the world event everyone was waiting for after all? When would the golden age begin? These questions and more are answered by Billy Hero, who is on the move. He's recovering from partial amnesia due to his most recent battle with the Nagas. The story follows him from New Mexico to Denver, through some Deep Underground Bases on his way to Minneapolis to meet with his old friend, the Reverend T.J. Clemons who broadcasts his gospel message from the Holy Mexican Radio Air Wave Ministry from Chihuahua, Mexico. Meanwhile, Avenging Angels are administering cosmic justice. The clock is ticking towards December 21, 2012, the end of the Kali Yuga Age and the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Revival is breaking out at Reverend Clemons' radio station, and three Hopi Indian warriors are tracking Billy Hero. More information at: http: //somewhere.travelingshoespress.com
