I believe that Jimi Hendrix hit notes
That were only on his guitar
And that Stevie Ray Vaughan inherited the trait
And took it to another level.
I believe in 99-cent 2-liters of RC.
I believe in cake frosting for breakfast.
I believe early morning pornography.
I believe that the serenity of poisonous animals
Stems from the quiet knowledge of their own menace.
I believe bicycles have souls.
I believe in father-son cross-country trips.
I believe in loving brothers.
I believe in eccentrics who aren't neurotic.
I believe wasting your life for years
Isn't bad so long as you realize
What you were losing
While you were lost.
I believe in finding yourself.
I believe in liking what you find.
I believe that products of environments
Only exist when the person in question
Has no thoughts or beliefs of his own.
I believe in cross-room glances.
I believe in rationing yourself to people.
I believe the big picture is too big to comprehend
So people make generalizations
To make it digestible.

Interesting post bc. A bit difficult to digest maybe but I found some nice things in there.

Why not come over to 'Dark Passions' or 'The Corner Pub' and let rip!

welcome by the way...
