OUT OF THE GUTTER ART
oh so WHITE AND SHINY... Waiting for my pen, for my brush. I just cant stand the barrenness of it, stretching of into the infinite distance, saying nothing.

"My dreams are NOT dead!..."

"Art class with the finest teacher...I did not think I liked the man..."
"I am just a memory, dead in the dust, gone like the wisp of smoke that curled from the tip of the gun that killed me..."
