horror stories
with a smile
wry winces
that wrinkle
effects abnormal
tearing wiper blades off cars
not funny last night
still not funny today
i wanna go home
tap 3 times
i do believe
i do....i do....
then it's a slap in the face
wake-up!!!!!
buddha smilin'
sun risin' in the east
air crisp
smell so clean
a little cut up
but, you made it
me I feel like I'm becoming some kinda Kung fu t.v. Priest.....

yea mark, it's really tough some days...Fred rock, B' Mo.....civilization is full feral animals.....camping is the best escape.....at least the animals have four legs and are not interested in your automobile.....or your bicycle, or your stereo......possessions seem to drive people insane......but of course I will never be a speechless monk that stares at the sun from the side of a nepalese mountain......for all their flaws, i still like people....flame on, bro...

..it's for a friend of mine, who has been becoming more and more extreme as he moves into his 20's...i met my waterloo at 23 on the still pavement of a deserted highway after flying off the roof of pickup truck going 70+ mph....it hurt for awhile and it sure was a wake up call for the rest of my life..........

aaah, yes perhaps some sagely old rocker advice is in order....if you're really lucky you get one of those profound wake-up calls, if you not....you're dead
Ben's lucky to have you .....a guardian angel of sorts........take 'er easy mark
