Mourning becomes Syd

RIP, traveler
May Deltrine and his companions fly with you in the heavenly shimmering one above the astral
May ONE find you again
Don't fear him, Syd traveler
Accept him and find yourself away
Don't hide away
You are finally free
Smile, traveler

Everyone, say a word for Roger "Syd" Barrett
1946-2006

Well...
He didn't do that may drugs
he was traveler. Took many trips to far places. That could change a person. Mostly he was just misunderstood and alienated. I would've done exactly what he did in his shoes. I can even still see myself doing that someday

he was really a lot like me
He's the one of the only musicians and probably any people I have have a strong intuitive connection to and understanding of.
Him dying somewhat dumbfounded me.
I spoke to him in a dream last night, before I read that he died. We were at a grateful dead concert. Jerry Garcia was there too, but was just playing. never spoen to that guy. Syd seemed happy, young, witty, and beatiful again. I thought it a little odd that he was there, because in my mind he was "alive" (*his physical presence still felt), but now it makes sense, I guess
