So penniless...
All my damned life...
But screw money...
Passioned my life!
Tell me about it and I am in the same boat Bravo! ! ! ! !
Better to be penniless and soulful than filthy rich and soul-less!

This is amazing, Richard. You have taken a deep dive into Kerouac's biography. I recall that when he passed away he had barely enough money to buy a few copies of some of his own works. Kerouac is treasirung this verse!
What sacrifices artistes have to make! His spirit is rich in vigour! Kerouac deserves to be treasured! Much obliged, M.J.!
