Favorite Quote:
Time to nut up, or shut up.


The stairs
One stationary set.
Six steps to freedom.
Six steps to oppression.

One stationary set.
Yet it travels up,
and it travels down.
The stairs.

Six steps to freedom.
Work your way up and into the bliss.
Into a place where everyone's awake
Their minds attentive and ready to appreciate.

Six steps to oppression.
(Easy way down.)
One foot after the other, effortless.
Down and into the mayhem,
Into the place where everyone is yelling,
Their mouths vicious and dripping with anger
