Some Things About Me

Ted Berberian photography
Listen Here!!!
I like the word belligerent
It rhymes with refrigerant
I’m OK at lying
I’m scared of dying
I like eating food
I love to be nude
These are some things about me you should know
You should fucking know these things about me
I like to watch others
I love unwed mothers
I’m convinced the world’s ending
I like twisting and bending
I have furry ears
I write songs about queers
These are some things about me you should know
You should fucking know these things about me
I’m mean and I’m kind
I’m losing my mind
I don’t sleep that much
I use humor as a crutch
I think I’m a fraud
Not sure I believe in god
These are some things about me you should know
You should fucking know these things about me
I like chocolate cake
I give but I take
I’ve been to Hong Kong
I’ll sell you a song
I live in hotels
I don’t take any pills
I quit drinking booze
It’s not any big news
I act really glad
Even though I’m real sad sometimes
These are some things about me you should know
You should fucking know these things about me
This Rice Looks Like a Butterfly

Listen Here!!!
This rice looks like a butterfly
Lost against the smoky skies
Careening recklessly he’s all alone
A picture perfect mistake
Floating like a snowflake
With all the colors of a ice cream cone
Parading by so full of joy he’s hard to hide
A canvas full of sadness
With opportunities of gladness
A godsend from above on a plate of food
A fragile mind that wanders
A nothingness to ponder
A fleeting glimpse of life that slowly fades
A feeling that I’m almost there and then it leaves me all alone
I’m eating in a restaurant
While memories of you haunt
I almost see your face but then it fades
This rice looks like a butterfly
I feel like I could almost cry
I miss your empty eyes I want to hide
The waitress brings the bill it’s time for me to leave
I was going to Jump but I decided I wasn't worth it

That Padres game was a heartbreaker to say the least. But it sure was a fun ride while it lasted. They're done for the season and I can get back to life. Hats off to The Rockies and to The Phillies. I have the whole off season to think about this. I thought if I updated this blog that I would jinx the Pads. That's how screwed up I am. Oh well, now I can get back to business.
The picture above was taken in Prince Edward Island a few days ago. Right now I'm back in Nova Scotia playing more shows at a music conference thingy in Liverpool. I went swimming yesterday in White Point and ate some great Atlantic salmon. Life is good but I can't get that sinking Padre feeling out of my system.
Off to New York tomorrow to drown my sorrows in the taping of The Hugh Thompson Show in New Yoooooork City.
I'll be sad tp leave Halifax. The land of my birth and home of some great friends.
I'm Back,
Steve
