About Los Angeles

Sometiems I wonder, man, what’s her deal? She’s chaos, beauty, a middle finger to the world. “All the world’s a sickhouse,” Kaufman said—whore’s the nurse, the patient, the cure. She pisses me off, breaks my heart, cracks me up. Exaggeratin’? Maybe. But damn, she’s realer than most. Whore, y’all—she’s the play we’re all actin’ in, whether we admit it or not.

Then, you got Big River Bend. It flows kinda slow but with so much soul, reminding me of life’s twists – sometimes melodic, sometimes chaotic. I’ve sat by the river when I felt mad or just needed that “chirp chirp, that’s life” moment. Funny thing: one time, while counseling in my cozy, quirky office on Riverside Avenue, I looked out the window and saw a rainbow over the water – that hit me like, “This is life, baby – no regrets,” just like in our fav flick.
