Questing...

was the crazy one
the family shunned
didn't know how to deal
with the weirdness
with the difference
"why can't you be..."

alice cooper very loud
acid mania madness
addict with no goodies
screaming into pillow
grandmother praying
dark darkness everywhere.

formative years and tears
laughing at the terrors
school another dimension
only friends imaginary
real as real could be
questing on one knee.

little wonder or surprise
bikes, whips, chains
outlaws seemed normal
driven from hometown
by demons yet unknown
death dancing daily.

decades become foggy
time takes on unreality
parties and craziness
sick and tired of being
the worse of all, baddest
questing on one knee.

was the crazy one
the family shunned
didn't know how to deal
with the weirdness
with the difference
"why can't you be..."

Humm...I wonder. Questing on one knee...where does it take me?

It takes me back...long, long ago to a time almost forgotten.

To ride into the Valley of Death...to ride alone...be it one or six hundred...it made no difference!

Forward!...seek and you shall find...
peace and tranquillity.

DJ...enjoyed your poem...
