I was very sad to hear about Bennett leaving this wold. I have many fond memories of him. Here is one from 1986.
There was a big faerie party at Golden Gate House, a huge flat in San Francisco where David Kerlick, Jim, the late Leo Ayrs (sp?) and the late Gary Compton and at various times other faeries, lived. Harry & John were there, visiting from LA.
About 10 PM, and it's a cold foggy night, Bennett, naked at the party, walked out the door in the buff. It was an African-American neighborhood at the rime, and myself and others were worried what might happen to Bennett wandering the streets buck naked!
About 1 AM Bennett returns with a big smile on his face, naturally prompting several of us to inquire about his adventures.
Bennett, said," I walked to the park (Alamo Square) a few blocks away and laid face down on a bench. Then I waited a long, long time.
It was cold, but the colder it got , the hotter I got! Then I saw there was something there. It was a man! "
Bennett did not have to tell the rest of the story. We, like Bennett, now all had smiles on our faces.
xxoo,
Jerry the Faerie
