 Once upon a time, a bespectacled boy made a wish to live life like a Great American Novel, one that would read like the sci-fi of a great comic book worthy of The Public Library, his childhood Fortress of Solitude.  Just write what you know, advised Ms Raesade, beloved sixth grade English teacher at P.S 161 in The South Bronx.

There are no great stories without heartache and no refunds for answered prayers.

I’ve become the prisoner of a kid’s dream aided and abetted by other dreamers. 

So be it.

How can I be of service to Planet Earth?

I can imagine a lot, you know.

Female scientists got together to create The Perfect Man.

They died.

This is what happens when no one made you a Valentine.

Still, they died with a smile as you would if you ever met him.

Stay away and eat chocolate.

You’ll live longer.

Take Another Piece Of My Heart sung & howled by Janis Joplin
