I See The Children With Their Boredom

There's An Old Man Sitting Next To Me, Making Love To His Tonic And Gin.

Out Of Respect For The Things That I Was Never Destined To Do, I Have Learned That My Strengths Are A Result Of My Weaknesses, My Success Is Due To My Failures, And My Style Is Directly Related To My Limitations.

When I See An Entire Community Disenfranchised, It Disturbs Me. Not That I'm A Message Guy, Per Se. I Write About People. I Like To Write About Human Beings, Not Crap Political Rhetoric. I've Tried To Avoid That All My Life. When I Wrote About Soldiers In Vietnam, I Wasn't Trying To Make A Political Statement. I Was Trying To Write About How Screwed Things Were For Soldiers, And How They Still Are.

Twyla Tharp Put It Together From The Material I Wrote And Recorded Over My Whole Career. I Thought It Was Pretty Good, But How Objective Could I Be?

It Should Be Easy For A Man Who's Strong To Say He's Sorry Or Admit When He's Wrong.
