Aint one goddam motherfuckin' word about the farthest north American bike messenger in any of this shit, not like I don't know you fuckers, not like after fourteen years on the road here I might rate at least a mention? Fuck you guys I'm goin' club hoppin' with the joker. Just kidding, much love and respect...still what 'em I chopped liver?
Ever get a song stuck in your head and you don't know why?..........
Oh, Anchorage man it's hard just to live, and the cities dieing and it don't know why. Maybe that hard town by the sea it's getting a little soft but it's still hard just to live...Might just move out to the Valley, raise some chickens, do a little grow-op, take my sister Sandy and my little brother Ray, shoot guns in my underwear, Yes there are differences, Baltimore is a poverty stricken, crime ridden sinkhole, while Anchorage has a strong economy betwixt the tourists and the oil, we'll be fine. No it's a death of spirit. Harden the fuck up Anchorage. That shit you read about in the news we've always had shit like that. Do the research. Maybe it might have something to do with who's doing the crimes?
The losing another friend might hurt a litlle less, maybe 'cause like in that stupid movie they run every Xmas when a bell rings an angel might get their wings, Yeah I know , they were not first picks to be angels but it might move them up the promotion list. Ring that bell to drown out the under lying sadness.
I sometimes think about those moments, the perfect moments when alles klar herr Komisar, When I felt like Falco floating above the streets with the cops behind me. I miss it but the more you live the faster you will die.
and the other side of that well, in terms of seventies and eighties pop music enough time on that road, I hate people when their not polite.
The best and worst bike messenger in Anchorage, Alaska.He's a complicated man. No one understands him but his woman. He's a bad motherfu... Shut your mouth! But I'm talkin' 'bout Kirk. We can dig it.
Feel the pavement when you bounce from it, hear the engine of a car roaring behind you, answer the static coming from your two-way, embrace the corner of the box that craves your spine while you´re carrying it in your bag, taste the cold and yet sweet taste of beer when it sparkles in your mouth.
