bamboo makes for messy forests

twenty-seven years and one million words

The Boy and I went for quite a hike, today. Due to deforestation, we got lost a few times, and I was pretty annoyed at what a mess they've made in our beloved hills. But all's well that ends well. I have to admit that the view had improved across those mangy hill-tops. This was a view from the mad scramble down the back side of the hill.

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little — a movie song here or a TV ad there.
