phd.fail.ed

I tried to be someone extraordinary: Jerry West. Then tried to be Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg rolled into one. Dreamed of being Robert Plant, David Bowie or David Byrne. I tried my hand at graphic and web design, then business. Fail.ed.

Being too temperamental, I was never voted most likely to succeed. Tried to be loved, but never learned how. Tried marriage, failed twice, but today sitting in my peach colored box I successfully envied the riders of the Tour de France.

B.F.M.
