Do you know where you're going? What is your path? If you don't know, you're the type of person that doesn't take responsibility for your actions. You blame other people for the stupid things you do. The truth is not in a higher power or in destiny. The truth is in the thoughts you decide to think. I absolutely love poeple who know who they are. Who accept the world in which they live and accept responsibility for the things they do. These are the happy people and the truth is anyone can just decide to be like this. By accepting themselves and the choices that they make right or wrong.

Not able to make it in the real world this beatnick spends his time screaming into microphones, writing screen plays and songs, producing film/videos. He was asked about swine flu recently to which he responded "About 6,000 Americans die of stomach ulcer-related complications every year."

In the beginning there was only God. He had just finished mowing the lawn and as he lay in his hammock sipping Yerba Mate He wanted some tunes. God of course loved Elvis but he needed something different. A little wilder and more primitive like, Alien Sex Fiend or The Cramps,” I know” and he reached down and touched a puddle of mud below. There was some smoke, a little fuzzy electric sound, and then poof “ManApes”. He listened and knew it was good and so he bought a Tee Shirt from www.cafepress.com/themanapes
Oh and a bumper sticker for his golf cart.
ManApes
She nudges down beside him
Warmth in the warm summer waves
She’s a child again in her escape
A far away waterfall drains silently
So nice to find on these rainy days
And she paddles against the rhythm
Very slightly to lengthen her stay
Breathing soundless deep and softly
Not wanting to disturb the water
Hearing the falls she moves to the side
Whatever she needs to stay the high side
Reaching out holding the sunshine
Even licking a little to sooth her thirst
The intensifying water brightens
As she lets herself flow down
Like pulling all the threads tight
Before running through her mouth
And as she falls so fast and deeply
Weightless splashing down the mountainside
That fond warmth engulfs her completely
And so she hikes back up again

Sweet and Sour
Oh you’re such a perfect love
A wonderful mystery
So dark and so new
Who are you running to?
You’re broken
It’s who you are
Now you can’t trust anyone
My little diamond
I feel the rubble
Crumbling as I walk
I Feel the power
Every time we talk
Little rich girl
All grown up
She’s going to tear you apart
She’s my little shark
She tells me he’s bluffing
His pride his reveal
He thinks she’s imitating
But I know she’s real
My Talents are obsolete
With a gun in my hand
And daddies demon complete
The world deals in fear
And for the most part it wins
Power is what money appears
They all just want money
I only worshipped power
What do you think honey

Three Lessons from ManApes
1 "The day rises and sets with faith and as you go about your life remember that the most powerful are those who put their faith in greater things than themselves. Greatness is not a virtue but a result."
2 "Beware of those that worship themselves for they stand on the backs of others, and like helping someone that's drowning, they will pull you to the bottom."
3 "Use discretion when responding to the cynical because they will not learn. They only seek to justify themselves."
