And I'm 30 And it's Gin and ice and pine sap burning. Melancholy mixed with a God complex. Enough bullets for my enemies and myself. A desire for violent peace. And I sit by. Letting the world and my obligations pull me about. I've no doubt heard the whispering. I'm a man of tradition. I'm a heathen. But I'm a man you can count on when there's bleeding to be done.
