Beat It

was a cool Monday afternoon, a perfect day to play football. I was feeling more energetic than usual. I think it was because before the game our whole bus was jamming out and getting pumped.

Journeys and passage was forever prevalent in my life and as I embarked on yet another journey folk songs disappeared. There was no song as my family and I packed our bags and loaded into a beat-down van to leave our home of eight years.

We added a single drop of water and calculated 56 beats per 30 seconds, I then added one single drop of alcohol to the flea.
