Punk Rock Saved My Life

THE SCENE :

YES ! as D. Boone said all those years ago,
PUNK ROCK SAVED MY LIFE.
I am one to VALIDATE those thoughts.
PUNK ROCK SAVED WHAT?
My Life.
OUR LIVES.
Remember,
Dennis Boone
said this,

and it may seem weird, that way after his
passing, anyone would KNOW THIS
and think it means something -
YOU SAY he died, what was he saved from?
EXACTLY.
Oh, I do not mean Punk Rock caused his death,
NO- PUNK ROCK GAVE HIM, us, LIFE !!
His SPIRIT lives on
to EMBRACE this attitude, lifestyle, music-

"the scene" *

as Gerber [Vagina Dentatta] once said, ...
"THE SCENE" ....
as I REMEMBER IT...
it was the STARDUST BALLROOM right on Sunset ,

now a Home Depot, BACK THEN and that be way
back to a time not forgotten the 80's
probably the Circle Jerks in '84 backstage

and I was taping some punk body art and
atmosphere when Gerber took the mike
and spoke of her life, living with Chuck Bisquits,

living on the streets, all so wonderful
this was, she said,
because it was THE SCENE...

This was just a further explanation

of the breath of life flurishing
through many of us, for various reasons,

feeling the FREEDOM among us.
OH YES, punk does mean KILL ONE'S SELF

-what does that mean ?
MAYBE just that.

THAT IS death to the old AND
breathe life to what's new:
again PUNK ROCK SAVED MY LIFE.

Oh there are no or many transformations
of the mind -

ENTROPY constant chaos not change.
None of us want to change anything,

EXCEPT for ourselves, not
to change anything else WE LIVE HERE .
