This is for all the people who value themselves so much they can only be who they are. We don't let others control us with petty games...only want to live ..and let live.. Fly our Freak Flags High..
Take the High Road ..Judge Not Do unto Others...all the Right Stuff.. ☮️

Oh I feel like I need a change. I always feel like I need a change. The difference is, not being on tour means no change. No change of town anyway. I guess being in one place is a change of sorts. How’s covid treating you?

So here we are, seeing off another year of uncertainty. Gender ( what are you having?) Race ( with milk or without?) Music ( is that a song or are you just happy to see me?) Art ( but is it?) Philosophy ie. do you believe in an after life? ( what do you call this?) and a ton of other unanswered questions that a whole generation is saving for the therapist.

But let’s not talk about you, let’s talk about me for a change. My distinction ( apart from being of the dying breed of rock and rollers) is that I have never been in therapy. So sue me.

People keep moaning about lockdown and vaccines, to which I say, “ It’s not N**i Germany. “ But there you have it, people will always moan.

I am reminded of the words of a wise man I once met,
“ You become what you criticise.”
And if you don’t believe that, give it a few more years and you will.

Anyway, enough of my yakkin’ , here’s a hopefully cheerful little painting I knocked off the other day as a way of saying:

Happy Christmas and good luck next year.

Yours truly,
XCH

David has lived on the streets of Denver for five years. Like many elderly homeless, he gets social security but it's not enough to pay for rent.
