today a fantastic woman dared me to write FIFTEEN PAGES of something cohesive
and i do owe someone who paid me a few hundred dollars to write something long
about the time i helped build a company and hired most of its people
but ive hesitated doing it because the true story involves
sex
sadness
and life changing change
but it also sets me up as the victim
and i dont ever want to portray myself as that because
well, fuck that.
theres enough victim stories in the Top 40.
probs the best song to come out this year was by that teen Olivia Rodrigo
one reason i love the Good Book so much is, despite everyone being victims pretty much
including God
Jesus is not one.
Even when his disciples wuss out on him and run away and refuse to say yeah He’s my boy
He does his thing, comes back and tells everyone, no it’s cool
just be super cool
im out,
but just be super cool people.
thats a way harder song to sing which is why Christian music blows so bad and it took Black folks to invent Gospel to put some zip into it.
can i write 15 pages, of course.
even if you are like me with ADD or whatever it is
you just write
one page a day.
