Dear Rico Blanco

[cawees_]

Why did you do it?
Why why why?

Choose self over others maybe.
Choose want over need.
Choose "me" over "them".
Choose "you" over "us".

Do you not know that you are
more than a musician, more than an artist,
more than a song, more than a band name?

You were friend, brother, mentor, bewildering lost soul in search of an answer.

Have you finally lived your question long enough and has the answer laid your wondering to rest,
that you would pierce the heart of your very lifeblood
that you would still declare it was all worth it?

Oh Rico Blanco.
Certainly, you must be happy where you are.
