No, this ain't show business, this
is living, made in a made up mind,
being finished doing, just
living.

Making up reasons to dispute liars.

Maybe not a good living, but it's free.
Or paid for, any way.
Bought with a price
my grands won't be forced to pay.
Reminding myself why I wonder how I survived,
and none of the others I was did. We shed skins, to gain
wisdom of the serpent mound harmless as the passenger pigeon.
