Bender

All I have done for 5 days is listen to Jeff Buckley, read about Jeff Buckley, watch documentaries, movies and interviews and I just started the book about Jeff & Tim Buckley by David Browne called DREAM BROTHER.

Needless to say...I am on a Jeff Buckley bender...and I love it. I do this periodically with certain music...JB has been on my radar for years of course but something clicked recently...I started analyzing...as soon as I start analyzing - I am a useless piece of shit until I am done...spent...wore out. Until I am personally satisfied that I know everything I need to know, until I know I have all the material I need to survive....

Kindred spirits in fatherlessness we are...not going to lie...it intrigues me to hear the mental musings of someone who shares a similar childhood. JB lyrics are my favourite...genuine and easy for me to interpret. They are seemingly more straight forward in their beauty and storytelling than most which appeals to me...in contrast - Matthew Good lyrics are often intriguing and lovely but a bit convoluted so as it is not as easy to immerse yourself in them, I am in deep with JB right now...

My sister was supposed to be in Memphis this week for a few days...but she made other plans so I am now mentally sitting on the side of the river where JB took his last swim....gagging back some lilac wine..listening to Grace...wondering about a world with more JB music in it. No idea if I will ever go to Memphis to do this but in my head - I already have.

I wish I could immerse myself into things that increased earning potential.

Such is life. Sleep easy Mr. Lovely.
