here in the underbelly
of american culture:
the number eight

men
bow their heads in thier laps
they are so tired of fighting
women sit rigid and cold
our faces unwilling to give
we are so tired of fear

we're growing old
unevenly
our fists in our faces
we'd just like to give up
for a little while, and float

there is no way to let go
too many who need your strength
too many to burn you for
slippin up

don't step outta line
or they'll replace you
with the next sucka

My ol' man Clovesbud drove up with our friend from LA for the NWW weekend, now it seems you were there too! It's really sucky, but my best friend ehme was in town from Toronto, and she got really sick, so we couldn't go to the show with the other two. REALLY SUCKY. But Clovesy hooked up with jonnytrrrash and explored Portland together, and even got steve to call me to say hello, but I happened to be out (DAMNITDAMNDAMNDAMN). So it is a small world... small and surreal and beautiful.

Oh yeah, I remember why I came over to say hello in the first place... I loved what you wrote in that hater thread on the music board. wink
