Analysis of To live now

Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)



To live now - to. Me I see myself 16 at track on a one mile run. Us running on early day cold breeze hits us all groan as our muscles ache. Me 24 I just saw Monica on a video she was shy as I. Never looking at the camera looking down. Me In a car flipped hanging upside down. Me looking for her and finding her prone outside the car. Me with Patricia having sex for hours. Now is now tomorrow is supposed. To live now is alive no hiding from what your past. We hide from ourselves so we don't have to live. Larry Lowry

Most of us are alive. Others are tourist saying what is this. A person alive sees now always now.
