To expunge this memory from the record.

To expunge this memory from the record.

“No history is mute. No matter how much they own it, break it, and lie about it, human history refuses to shut its mouth. Despite deafness and ignorance, the time that was continues to tick inside the time that is.” - Eduardo Galeano

Take care of your life Big Bruiser Dope Boy (BBDB), from Dodgeville Sonnets
Ken Walks in, a familiar face I’ve seen him at the psychiatrist’s Office, but we’ve never talked About it I hope he knows I’m with him In this shit This nagging, gnawing shit Of the restless, discursive mind Where some days you’re just Grinding by, looking for Any reprieve from it, man It’s really hard sometimes And the answer is always to Breathe through it and focus On the present and what needs To be done Take care of your life

And if the song's in search of earth, and if the song's Ensouled, then everything vanishes To void, and the stars by which it's known, And the voice that lets it all be and be gone. —Osip Mandelstam
