Low expectations talking English
Artists with metaphorical mp3’s
Electronic tracks on my pillow
Countdowns purchased anonymously
By cold hearted mummies
Infamous halogens with hip hop views
Rocker chicks blow life into intimacy
Dead or alive becomes a musician

Writing links to the whole enchilada
Empty brain world rewriting history
To all the spaces in-between
Must be teen spirit?
Kick starting dance wannabe’s
Fast and the furious
Going to underground movies and
A black Sabbath rumble
Carefully selected by
Empty soul’s of currency

Stomachs swelled with
Heart failure
And a bump on the head
Give me a home in West Virginia
Remote mountainside where no one else lives
And a moment of silence
Co-habiting with retirement
Wishing Peace on Earth & Good Will to all of Man

Yeppers - "it's a wild world" and somedays I would just like to "sail away".

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

It is almost as if beating your brains out on a brick wall would be cheaper and quicker than listening to the beat of a destroyed piece of genius rammed by an ego that can't even understand what they have destroyed.

I totally agree Lee.  Getting away from the
hustle, bustle and strain....relaxing on
a porch somewhere as the only sound is a
board creaking softly beneath bare feet...
