That August night
Was such affright
It would scare the men away

What happen to me and my friends
Well that depends
On what you call friends.

All they did was run
Not for another gun
But to save them selves the hurt

Which I ate dirt
I was not a pleasant sight
It surly gave me a fright

That one August night
It was a dark and dreary sight
The one that I am scare for life

I still search for him
The one with that grin

The one that got me to the ground
And turn me world upside down.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
