A pathetic mixture of my excessively emotional self

[amixofwords]

If your music sounds like bubble gum pop...chances are you've yet to take a trip down that very desolate road of anguish, heartbreak and desperation. As cliché as the thought may be, the universe can be a pretty chilly place. In the realms of reality, frostbite lies ahead of you. Brave yourself for what awaits you. Without having experienced the world and all that it truly is, what poetry could you possibly create?

And you wondered why listening to Nina Simone's raspy vocals stirred you so?

I feel like an old geezer in need of bourbon.
