I should have been born a Columbian warlord married a Bolivian drove a Humvee loved America Loathed America sent my drugs there drank till my nerves were wired like an afro. Been flush with guts and heat worn boots that don't know snow and loaded myself with subordinates. I should have been born.

Writin' just as much and just as wonderin'. Never get it, always try, keep askin', seldom find why. Guess I could post here more, already got more than anybody, and more in the Q. More what? Yeah, don't go there.

You think you're in a slow spot? I'm in gridlock on the 101 North carpool lane gettin out of Hollywood & the smog hell shroud of LA. Inspiration hasn't had an electric storm in my area for sometime;- sad days for a veteran lightning rod.

Pablo Escobar.

I think the last line should be:

"I'd have been better than Pablo."

And may I suggest the title "Rebirth & Cocaine Jungles."?
