    the man who wears an onion
    go buy some onions"

    "i just got back from france.
    too many damn onions."

    "that's what they all say
    well
    it seems you're all washed up
    i can't suggest much
    i feel like the man who went to the doctors and
    saved all the other patients
    then died himself"

    "man, we're the same damn man."

    "i've strived to be different-
    now i feel like i spent hours making a hat out of glass
    and went outside and bumped into another man in a glass hat
    and it smashed
    . . .
    are you still about?"

    "i'm writing."

    "i see..."

    "i hope god has bigger balls than janis joplin
    because no one else does."

    "...a writer"

    "i feel like the man who out boxed muhammed ali
    and thought he was the champ
    then got knocked down on the sidewalk by some kid
    looking for a penny to spend on beer."

    "maybe it's not necessary -

    to find a way to write songs that don't rhyme
    to live a life without drinking yourself half to death
    half the time,
    to not wear onions but still have
    half a million ways of making people cry.
    maybe sometimes
    you can knock the champion of the world down flat
    but still be unable to let
    sleeping
    dogs
    lie

    - i really don't know what to think."
