Peter Orlovsky has passed away. I remember seeing him read at the Poetry Project, drinking a tallboy, shirt unbuttoned and belly swelling, talking about eating ass. [P&W] (NSFW)

There are some lovely tributes to Peter Orlovsky starting to pile up. People adored him.
Great memory of P.O. -- did you see the link to the tribute someone left in our comments? Nice tribute.
I haven't seen much in the msm, though.
p.s. Hey, Brooks!
Probably worth mentioning that the Orlovsky link is quite NSFW.
hmm, good point. somehow, i didn't quite notice the penis.
Hey, Bryan! (Have we crossed paths? I'm wondering if you have me confused with Brooks of Sheffield. 'Cuz dat's not me.)
Anyway....hidy!
Hey -- my bad, Brooks *not* of Sheffield. But maybe we'll cross paths too at some point.
And sorry too, Dan, for the racy Ginsberg/Orlovsky. It's my favorite picture of them and I just couldn't resist. Seems appropriate for them to continue to shock, though!
Re: Orlovsky. The Robert Frank movie Me & My Brother is a must see. Excellent movie!
