Religious Philosophy:

I was “the fella over there with the hella good hair” Taylor Swift sang about.

As far as posters go, some say, I’m the best there is, the best there was, and the best that ever will be.

The Holtz Room’s Hometown

He stands alone
Beneath the stars
Thinking, wondering
About life’s big questions:
Where is my doppelgänger?
Where is my prairie song?

In the room the women come and go
Talking of Napster and stereo.

He has not measured out his life in coffee spoons
He stands alone
Between the gutter and the stars
On the sidewalk outside the home
In his hometown.

When he was young
The children scoffed and stared
Laughing at him and
Said, “You are such a freak!”
But the green-eyed girl with hair so red
So lovely it made him hurt like he’s been punched,
The green-eyed lovely said to him, leaning over her handlebars,
“You are special. You are unique.
You will blow this pop stand and venture far,
Between the gutter and the stars.”
