***

They picked the place on Lombard because it wasn’t crowded.  Masses of people tended to complicate things, make them both nervous.  So they buy coffee and talk about where the next Church of Consciousness meeting is being held.  Wouldn’t do to miss it.

They took the acid test a few years ago – he relived a long, boring past life in Egypt where he created elaborate scarabs and she screamed about flying donkeys.  They stick to pot when the budget allows, but mostly it’s all about gas money and food.  Gotta live lean to get where they’re going.

They’re sleeping in a van, making love on someone borrowed blanket next to a cross-eyed basset hound named Boo.  Then they busk for the cash they need to join the revolution’s next stop.

Dreams of grandeur still occur.  Maybe they’ll change the world.    But for the moment, their gypsy days are good enough.
