My mask is tainted
Poorly painted
Cracked and stained
Horribly maintained

I am so sick of American political discussions. Its almost a joke: A battle between the Conservatives and the Liberals; the Republicans and the Democrats. What the hell ever happened to the UNITED States??

While everyone else hates the idiot, I pity him.

Everything we do is a futile attempt to outlast time, we all fade into eternity in the end. Its a beautiful thing both because of, and in spite of all that we go through.

Why do we hate to be called weak
When it is so obvious that we are?
Why do we hate to be called monsters?
Look at us!!
We are.

I suppose I like to write about life because than I can at least pretend I have a hold on it.

I want to live long and die young.

Rock revels in the emotional vitality of life, the simple mess of it all: anger, love, hate, misery, joy, regret. Classical is meant for subtler things, things you can't describe: the sad notes of yesterday and the hope and pain that tomorrow brings.

Music exalts each joy, allays each grief
Expels diseases, softens every pain;
And hence the wise of ancient days adored
One power of physic, melody and song.

~Dr. John Armstrong (1708-1779)

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wildflower
Hold Infinity in the Palm of your Hand
And an Eternity in an Hour

~William Blake (1757-1827)
