Happy Thanksgiving

This prayer brought to you by Wiliam S. Burroughs.
I find myself thinking about him each and every Thanksgiving. If you are unfamiliar with him and enjoy his ‘Thanksgiving Prayer’, then give a listen to his spoken word cds, I like Dead City Radio and Spare Ass Annie and Other Tales. As far as books, The Portable Beat Reader is a great place to start, as you get to learn about him in the context of the Beat Generation. If you want to mainline a little Burroughs, dive right into his book Naked Lunch.
If for some reason the above video does not resonate with you, don’t even bother with him or the Beats, you must be a ‘Square’…
