I write........

I write......... because I must
I write.........to pass the time
I write.........to get past a moment
I write.........to kill the day
I write.........because creating is living
I write.........when I can't deal
I write.........when the mood strikes me
I write.........in the absence of truth
I write.........to exercise my brain
I write.........to think of something else
I write.........to think of nothing else
I write.........to focus on the facts
I write.........to warp reality to back into daydream
I write.........when I can't sit still
I write.........to find the meaning
I write.........for no reason at all
I write.........when sensations overwhelm me
I write.........to remind myself it's real
I write.........because I can
I write.........just like breathing
I write.........to savior a memory
I write.........when nothing else seems right
I write.........to face the future
I write.........when I can't shed the past
I write.........if sleep evades me
I write........like I talk, without end

Feeling Kinda Patton

Charmed I'm sure...... Patton Oswalt is one of my favorite comedians and one of the smartest, funny people alive. His point blank sarcasm colors his observational humor in a twisted way which confounds some, but makes perfect sense to me.

You may have also seen him on VH1's Best Week Ever (he was fired for making fun of Paris Hilton), Zoolander, Blade: Trinity , Reno 911 , The Comedians of Comedy tour, Blood Into Wine , Lewis Black's Root of All Evil show and some of Comedy Central's Roast of ... episodes. Patton has had a big impact on me through his stand up and through his brilliant albums Feeling Kinda Patton (United Musicians) Werewolves

OCTOBER MEANS HALLOWEEN

Next to Thanksgiving, Halloween has always been my favorite time of the year. I celebrate the entire month long in some form or another. Decorating the house, watching horror movies, costume parties, various parades, haunted houses and of course candy too. Halloween in the hood was a bit of a mixed bag for a me growing up as a kid. My family always decorated the house. My mom made individual candy bags to give out. For a costume I often wore a homemade get up, like being a clown or a cat. One year I got a “fancy” Spider-Man costume from Woolworth's . Oh those suffocating plastic masks with strangulating rubber bands and costumes made of sweaty plastic. My costume was torture, but I was so happy. Growing up in the “ Summer of Sam ” my dad had to take us around for candy. Older kids would go “bag snatching” “egg bombing” or other forms of mischief to terrorize little ones. Halloween also means horror films! I grew up on the classic Universal Monster movies , from there it was
