Sorry Jeremy, you shouldn't have tried to bust my head.

I'm ready for the honcho at "Satan's Circus" to start his assault tomorrow.
I think the biggest I've ever put through a shotgun is #5. I guess I'll be in basic training with 9rd 00 buck. Both weapons 18" barrels, no shoulder stocks. Not exactly my specialty.
The wannabe sheriff that I parked my real stuff with (for his son's sake) isn't returning my calls right this second. Probably smart.
When the shit flies, he has the keys to my gates. I'm not too worried, to be honest, I don't care. FWIW, I still don't know what happened to my older sister in Portage. She's probably still hurtin' pretty bad. She's pretty close to Chicago, who knows?

Portage is just east of Lake Station. I know a guy who lives in Lake Station. He is retired Captain from Chicago Fire Department. I went to High School with him. He hooked up with his old flame from High School who recently lost her husband. Funny how things work out. ;)

Undun is the penultimate ode to the various dingbats who've flown through our lives' skies. imo
Just like others here, stories trigger songs that mirror them put to music.
There's not many human situations that have not been made into songs throughout the ages.
