Greeting and salutations to all brave and benevolent souls who wish to embark on a journey through contemporary America's dark side. Few may have the blissful privilege to encounter what I will discuss in this blog and others, too oblivious, too self centered and out of touch with reality will be exposed to a realm of this superficial and false world we inhabited from our ignorant ancestors and they from our maniacal lord.
I am your tour guide as well as tempter of these worlds of the underground; drugs, depression, violence, social and cultural corruption, homelessness, mass murders, empty bottles of wine and whores to expensive to love as the moon smiles, loss of god, loss of humanity, ex boyfriends who taint all men, paper cuts on the mainline and gentrification, communism, punk rock and all its disciples, marlon brando and james dean had a kid: mickey rourke wasn't it, beatniks and hippies, tim leary to charles manson, dean moriarty might have been the beautiful abrasive existential wanderer but was kind of a douche, jesus died for the sins of man, but for a select few i think, debu-cunts on 14th st walk on $300s as hobo martyrs dwell in their money made hells, tom waits growls the love story of a drunk's shot at the top as the sex pistols aggressively plead and fight for the anarchical intellectual awakening, beat saint jack, poet laureate of skid row - hank, the nihilists: old bull burroughs and the underground man, they all laugh of our sanctifying and soullessness, the chic bars of st mark's killed jim didn't it? and whatever happened to garcia lorca in spain; we contorted our selves as james white advised us to and we will til victory but what till then...
if you dug what was said please continue to read and follow, if you're like the rest of 'em:
please post your hate, loathing, distaste and ugliness for all to see
but not care about.
about the author:
i am a writer, i write short stories and this is my first attempt at non-fiction. i have written a couple of personal essays on varying topics though. i like to write about what pisses me off, the things of everyday life that which those with souls bear its onslaught and those who sleepwalk through life neglect to recognize or know nothing of its existence; i write to expose and to put it out there. revelation or realization in my readers is what i am hoping for. As a writer i want to do what the greats do for me: contemplations on the world around us, meditation and reflections on and of world and its systems; but mostly, lend a shred of hope and companionship for all those depressed, wandering, accidental existentialists and lost souls who feel there is little left.
Bukowski, jack, bill, selby, miller, fyodor and others, showed me that there were others who felt the same as i did - i wish to do the same.
Hey what's up!
ReplyDeleteAm a Tom Waits fan too! Recently read a new biography on him called "Lowside of the Road: A Life of Tom Waits" by Barney Hoskyns. You should check it out if you haven't already. I like the films he's in too, especially Dracula.
