Simon Darlovksy says to me “Jack I’ve been looking for you for two days!  Where you been?  What you doin? Dyav any dreams lately? Anything great? Dany girls loosen your belt? Jack!  Look at me! Jack!” He makes me look at him, his intense wild face with that soft hawk nose and his blond hair crew cut now (before a wild shock)  and his thick serious lips (like Irwin’s) but tall and lean and really only just outa high school -- “I’ve got a million things to tell you! All about love!  I’ve discovered the secret of beauty! It’s love! Everybody love!  Everywhere!  I’ll explain it all to you -- “ Jack Kerouac, Desolation Angels Peter Orlovsky,  immortalized as Simon Darlovksy in Jack Kerouac’s Desolation Angels, snapped here in the apartment he and Allen shared, 1010 Montgomery Street,  North Beach San Francisco, Spring 1955.
