Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

A wake up call. I can hope. Unfortunately, the lessons of the past would indicate: Consolidation of power Into few hands; the beneficiaries: The wealthy, Connected, Upper class. The poor and downtrodden can look to themselves; and in this age of self-interest, there may be naught to find. The past r...

Are we all old men? And women too? I've been here for fifteen years! And longer before the split... What have we achieved? Much, I'm sure. And little as well.

Madness,

It's so close I can taste it, feel it in my bones! of course it soon fades, the promise unfulfilled. The ...

Give me the right to myself, To my anger, my foolishness, my self destruction My angst. I don't ask you to understand. I. I rage. I rage against all Against the foolishness, the injustice, the politics Against myself. There's so much more I could be doing! What? I don't know. But I hate myself for t...
