My dad used to occasionally wake us up with the stereo turned up super loud. One time it was the Dixie Cups doing "Down at Papa Joe's" and I thought a party was going on downstairs. Another time it was German marches. He would do it in the summer when he came in from midnight shift and we were still asleep.

In my years of writing both songs and poems, I have found that many poems don't work as songs, and lyrics that work in a song can seem cliched and insipid when read as a poem. This isn't always the case, of course.

Tomfoolery33 comments on Sep 19, 2018:

I disagree. I've been into philosophy for a long time, and whatever unhappiness I've gone through has had nothing to do with philosophy. In fact, sometimes philosophy makes me very happy, especially when I run across an exciting idea that hadn't occurred to me before.

Tomfoolery33 comments on Sep 19, 2018:

I think that's bullshit. You could also say people are born murderers. The whole point of "civilization" is learning to control our impulses to enough of a degree that we can function as a society. If you can't control your impulses, then you have a problem.
