"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
Hunter S. Thompson
"Don't give me answers or I would refuse,
"Yes" is a word for which I have no use.
I wasn't looking for heaven or hell,
Just someone to listen to stories I tell.
What is a blessing, what is a dream,
Caught between portraits and none's what it seems.
Why is it some would expect there's a change,
When I feel I'm a part of something I can't see,
And I feel the same.
Don't offer questions or I will retreat,
Fame is a cancer and ego its seed.
And I wasn't looking for heaven or hell,
Just someone to listen to stories I tell.
Do we ever wonder?
Did you ever care?
Stories I tell...
Subtle salvation in poems and prose,
Hiding our heads in some shadow of home.
I wasn't looking for wreaths or for bells
Just someone to listen to stories I tell
Stories I tell...
Stories..."

I spent 14 years running from terror, from pain, from life.
