Thus it begins—
A free-verse epic
Into the mind of
A writer and an idiot—
A romantic and, 
Often a pessimist
Conjoined in arbitrary glory

Of one overly-worked mind—
Charismatic and, of course,
On the pushover, pitiful
And usually...

the decline of who we are, the decline of something more
the start of wars

while with too...

Worn the brave face 
While I sweat in my heart
In this rapid-paced race

I arrived complete in dawn's light delightfully
Deleted the lack of passion progress...

There in which there’ll be no ringing of church bells;

You ole demon why you beget;

Thunder roars angels at  holy wars;

reach down beneath
	mustard yellow tank
to the stopcock there
	and opened the flow

to neutral shift
	open the clutch
lightly in leap up
	and kick down hard

blip the throttle

	engage the clutch

open the throttle

Waiting, 
For someone that's never there
Looking
Thru imaginary air
Hoping
But nobody really cares
Talking 
To friends who never dared 
To pay your fare.
.

But your dreams have seemed to morph into nightmares
.
Little man, how big are your dreams?
Big man,...

Us down by our throats and it will never let go.


Something beautiful, something ugly;

To relive my youth and go motor biking 
To pull back the throttle and kick down the gear
And tear up the highway, just like yesteryear
My hair flowing free...

Hubris is not my nature

I like my self to be tapered

Into humility rather than arrogance

If I do anything of significance

But many laughed along
As his wit was just so funny
Unless you were the victim
Of his verbal cuts and put-downs.

Often unloading on people
