Almost at the end of another year. I spent a quarter of this year working around the clock to rewrite poetry I'd lost from previous posts. I had to face down more music crimes from sharing my songs. Had to face it all down myself against wealthy rock stars. And the fucking rock station wants to talk about Keith Richards surviving another year. The billionaire rock star survived another year? That's amazing. They want you to be glad that Keith Richards survives because he needs love to keep him happy. He sure doesn't need money. I do though. But I didn't get paid for my music as well as he did either. And the radio wants you to love people who steal my songs because you can't do so without rejecting me. They want you to reject me. But you already accepted my music or you would have told those bands who stole it not to play it. You liked my music and now the radio wants you to reject its author. This is corrupt, irresponsible mass manipulation. If any rock musicians should be credited with surviving, it should be the ones who get regularly punched in the face by radio crimes and still practice their songs, like myself. This broadcast abuse adds more to my grief, but can take it. |
