THE PSYCHEDELIC YEARS
The psychedelic houses off Fourth Avenue when many were thumbing rides in the nineteen-sixties Vancouver.
Today that land is a vehicle for ever skyrocketing revenue.
Now, in the year 2018, makes an interesting time thinking things over.
Like, what ever happened to flower power and that new Age of Aquarius? Seems it’s turned idealistically a bit sour.
Sure makes this old goat kind of curious.
It appears we’ve become more ‘success oriented’ than ever before.
All those dreams and now some of us compare that with what today’s society has been anointed.
Even Gastown doesn’t look the same anymore.
Downtown Granville, what you ‘Seymour’,
‘Howe’ everything is exponentially more commercial.
Better stop at this point, as one wouldn’t appear to be expressing something a tad controversial.
