...indistinct waking dream that is the closest the narrative ever comes to clear, objective perception. Allert submerges, as Peter puts it, "into the long, slow chaos of the dreamer on the edge of extinction."

...MOSLEM REBELLION: We captured the main headquarters of the Moro National Liberation Front on March 11 in Batong Puti. We captured all their documents. They were in a cave that would have held 1,000 men. Undoubtedly, some of our lower-echelon officials have irritated the Moslems by not being flexible enough. For instance, when I proclaimed that nobody could carry a gun, some of our police and constabulary disarmed the Moslems in an alienating manner in markets and other public places. But one thing I'd like to make clear. We can handle any insurgency or infiltration...

Dylan concerts draw people who inhabited the fringes of campus teach-ins, rode Mississippi freedom buses and marched down endless University Avenues searching for an end to the draft...

Nymphs Cavorting. In one such segment, "The Cave," the stage is as loaded with animals as Noah's ark. Some are stuffed, some are simulated by actors (see cut), and some are real. Wilson is daft on animals, from ravens to ostriches, not excluding live dogs and sheep. In the cave the animals, cozy and docile, rest as if inhaling and exhaling the paradisiacal peace of Creation.
