Genius Loci

The Story Thusfar...

"Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’" -Vonnegut

What can I tell you, that you don't already know? Prodigal son returns, all that biblical stuff. Back in the shadows of the old canyons. Back in the places feared and celebrated. Walking the holy paths from bar to bar. Learning a new language. Bettering oneself. The eternal struggle. The eventual decay. The last, long year of the second decade. The transubstantiation. The shenanigans. Son of 5 Points. Brother of the Two Rivers. The cradle of life. Modern Mesopotamia, strike me down.

Sheer Poetry

You've got your reasons

And me I've got mine

But all the reasons I gave

Were just lies to buy myself some time

I'm gonna work it out

Cause time wont work it out
