Disclaimer

I've been publishing quite a bit on here as of late, and I felt the need to make a general statement regarding the content of these primitive scrawlings. Not that I feel that I owe any of you an explanation, but I don't want anyone to think I belong in a straight jacket. Most of the things published here were written in the late fall of 2013, and extended into the winter. I was experiencing a very real mental breakdown of sorts. It was visceral, and felt as real as anything I have ever experienced in my life. Late nights of substance abuse and self loathing. I never hated myself more than I did in the months of September through December of last year. It was all I could do to retain some fleeting semblance of sanity, to document these thoughts on this glowing screen. It was dark, lonely and terrifying. If this sounds like some sort of bastardized 'artistic hyperbole', so be it. I never considered this to be art. I'll never be like any of you, nor do I want to. I am my own man and I have carved out my own path. For better or worse. These aren't here for anyone but me. If others can see it and make a connection, even better. This isn't some piece of time, or piece of fucking 'art' to be analyzed and digested. This was a very real part of my life that I documented, and I am glad to have done so. I had to crack open a dark, horrifying section of my skull to find this stuff, and I am happy that it is over and I never want to go back there again. I don't know that I will be doing much here as far as new 'material', and most of this stuff is unedited and left as it's original piece as it was. Created in the moment and puked forth. Purged from my soul and splattered upon the screen. This isn't for you to enjoy. This is for me to look back on and be glad that it is over. I am in a much better place mentally. Thanks for reading.
