A Poet in Exile!

Please allow him to have what he needs!

Peter McWilliams lives in a house overlooking Laurel Canyon with a view that stretches past the wooded hills all the way to the clustered towers of downtown.   Frank Lloyd Wright called it the most inspirational site in Southern California, but it doesn't always feel that way to McWilliams. 
  It has become a kind of prison for the 49-year-old writer-publisher who hasn't been out of it since February. He doesn't have many guests over either, because his immune system is almost nonexistent and flu could kill him.  McWilliams is dying of AIDS, but the Feds won't let him smoke marijuana to ease his pain and nausea, even though California's voters legalized its use for medicinal purposes three years ago. On this Easter Sunday should we reflect on the suffering? I believe so!God Bless Peter McWilliams!
