STREET OF ROGUES
Written by: whatta
04/26/08***Book One: The Beat-up Generation. (This revision: New chapters 1 and 2. Eleven chapters added to the end.) From the ashes of the Beat and Love generations comes the evolution of the ‘Beat Up’ generation. —————————— I had a killer dream when I was thirteen. I dreamt I had found ‘true love,’ and it changed me forever. It changed me during the dream, and after the dream. I never forgot it, and wrote it down in pencil on a yellow tablet a year later. I knew, without a doubt, my destiny. The question for the next thirty-six years was: "When, goddamnit?" ———————————————————— This is not fiction; it’s the diary of a juvenile peering over the edge of an inferno. STREET... is the acid flashback I was promised. It is also the self-fulfilling prophecy of Just One Guy, whose passion was to live in a state of true harmony. It’s about the charmed life of a dragon in desperate need of a light. ———————————————————— —“Wild-assed-cynical-seen-it-all-New-York-City-teen goes to bed stoned, wakes up in 1970's Europe with a backpack and a willingness to recapture child-like awe in the world around him...” — HavePenWillScribble —————————— (The author respectfully requests you start at the beginning.)
