I pose you this question what makes a man, what makes a guy, what makes a boy or a teen? What is what one must go through to become one. You see I know boy to teen is easy for the most part, its age, but then again loose a teen and the boy grows to a man, and some guys I know think of them selves as men but are much more like boys wishing to be grown up. I have been thinking about this for the last few days. As a child I aspired to be a pirate, someone respected and loved for being kind and friendly. A childish dream, but still as I sit here thinking about what I define myself as thinking about re-sponc-ibility (whats that) and wishing that I had more, so I can view myself as a man while still keeping my inner child burning for knowledge and who knows maybe someday for a child of my own. I dont yet call my self a man because I dont know if I am at that level yet. But I know I am more then just a guy or a teen. I guess its just how I saw myself a while back and not as an artist more as a tinker of many different things. Well I pose you these questions.

Are you a man or woman?
Why? And how? What made you that way?

And how do you view me?
Why? And how? What made you come to that conclusion?
