    • The way you structured the poem it looks calm then increases with intensity just to calm down again. There is so many twists and turns in one life that it is impossible to get the nuance of it. Between the government and the churches and the societal acceptance of things that should not be accepted. Very interesting write

    • This one hits like a freight train of memory, madness, and raw observation—gritty, sprawling, alive with every sense screaming at once.
      I love how it doesn’t just tell a story; it drags you through the chaos of life, pain, and revelation, leaving you dazzled and unsettled in the best possible way.

    Just received news of Phil Campbell’s passing at the tender age of 64. He and Wurzel were a driving force behind what I like to call the “Orgasmatron sound”, when Lemmy brought another guitarist on board and made it a 4 piece. Motorhead best album imo

    • It was sad news indeed the passing of Phil Campbell. All that’s left now is Mikkey Dee right? The four piece era with Wurzel was a cool era in the band. I love all the lineups in Motörhead. Also, had two of Phil Campbell’s solo efforts. Lemmy and all the guys just loved to play Rock n Roll. Great song and album. Appreciate you – Damian

    • I’ve heard that as well. EVH was a fan of AC/DC. His son Wolfgang said in an interview that one of the first songs Ed taught him was an AC/DC song. Not definite on the song, it might have been “Back In Black” Great band great song. Appreciate you – Damian

    Friday 13th, perfect time to stare at the wall and contemplate existence in unwholesome ways.
