He was a little too mentally ill for me. I saw him on Jerry Springer. Very disturbing guy.

In 1993 he was all over daytime tv. He made sure he got his message out there. By August of that year, he was dead.
Thanks Tim.

Powerfully penned, Keith. Incredible write my friend. I remember when he was on the talk show circuit, J.J. Burton and I cut school one day and it happened to be on so we watched it. lol. I can’t remember which host it was but know I saw it. Appreciate you.

He was publicizing his violent legacy in 1992-1993 on national tv. At this point he was touring with his brother who formed a band called the Murder Junkies. I almost had a chance to see them live in 1993 at a hole in the wall club called the Gas Station in NYC. It was that evening after the show where he went with friends to a party. That night he overdosed and died.
You can find some of the footage of that show and the riot that GG created afterwards on Youtube. Thanks Damian.

Age old dilemma, for sure. I’ve asked this myself of all sorts of scholarly or “intelligent” people.
I steer clear of knocking the powers of a god-being, because some do indeed have faith in such. More power to them.
But, life has made me quite cynical. Therefore, I choose to believe in power of mankind as the true source of hopeful change.

Thanks for reading.
I agree entirely with your view particularly that praying sometimes brings solutions though not from a divinity but from ourselves.A peaceful quiet meditation works fine for me…. mostly.

I like this, and coming from someone who grew up in a conservative faith, as I got older I began to see things differently. Folks change the words to fit the narrative so that they can claim they are backed by divine power. It’s a scary thing.
Great work.-

Right now, I am in a massive dilemma myself with the ever increasing cost of add-ons to my mortgage. It has gone up 50% in just four years. This house is not worth what they charge me now. So, it may be time to go elsewhere sooner than expected.
Your write is obviously of a bigger picture, for all of us as a whole. The “dream” is being rocks through windows from so many directions. Peace of mind is scarce. Your frustration is loud, word by word.-

Yeah..its absolutely frustrating.. nothing is affordable..my wife and I have focused on downsizing the past few years and cutting back the expenses where we can..but to your point u can’t cut back the mortgage or the rising utility bills or ins..and we are all drowning quickly..the rich are rapidly getting richer and there’s a huge gap between them and most of us..oir next step is to downsize our house.. but we are still months and months away from that as thats more complicated with moving and everything..but yes it feels like rocks through windows..sucks..thank you for commenting..and hopefully be there times ahead

Not a huge fan of punk rock, but I’ve heard of GG Allin, his performances and how they were unforgettable. I’d say this ode to him was spot on. xx
