He looked at me
the way dead men look
at worms.
I hit him
3 fast ones.
All he did was smile.
Jesus Christ, I said.
I walked on,
quickly.

I've lived a life of madness and mayhem. I’ve had diabetes for 50 years and have been addicted to one substance of another for 45 of those years. It has been a beautifully joyful and painful schizophrenic ride: drugs, booze, women, music, writing, and learning with each new success or defeat. This blog tries to come to grips with all of life's fractures and contains everything--even you.
