Thank you so much! I was trying to push myself with my sentences and I cannot wait to try and make them even more dreamy. (And I slept lovely last night so I think you did some magic)

That’s okay. Get lost in them. Feel them. You don’t have to understand you just have to feel :)

Oof. That last line. Damn.

Visceral fever dream acid drop nightmare. I’m here for it.

This is totally random, but it made me think of the Anthrax song “monster at the end.”

I’ve actually never heard this song or at least not in a long time so I looked it up and wow there are so many parallels. Scott Ian and I are clearly sharing a brain

But also thank you so much!!! I love this description

I mean, clearly. 😂

In an interview he said something like “The monster at the end is always me.” (or always you, whatever.) I never forgot it.

ps: you will forever have my love and respect for knowing who Scott Ian is. 😆

Might have to give this another read, there’s so much there to ponder.

That’s awesome! Me too. He (and Charlie Benante) were my biggest heroes as a kid.

I’m about to run to find this interview. I actually had an intense love for Scott Ian as a child and am a deep deep fan of the entire metal genre so I have some knowledge on the key players

Not 100% sure but they did a series of videos for their 40th anniversary a few years ago, I think it was in one of those. They’re on YouTube. Or at least they used to be
