This Blogger -- OK It's Twisted Mom -- Has Me Thinking About My Life

I have read the trials and trubulations of a great many soulful beings here, disenchanted with the world and suffering in darkness.

THIS BLOGGER IS DEPRESSED AND DENYING IT - DESOLATION ROW
They're selling postcards of the hanging, they're painting the passports brown The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the circus is in town Here comes the blind commissioner they've got him in a trance One hand is tied to the tightrope walker, the other is in his pants And the riot squad they're...
