Anvil

Did you see the movie? Coyote vs. Acme? It was thankfully not of the cartoon species that infects our current cinema sphere. The cartoon characters in this movie are pretty close to the old school animation that we old folks grew up watching. But I am not here to write a movie review. Just to suggest you go see it. 

I was reminded however of the ever-present anvil in life, and how it hovers above us all with menace and without mercy. And reminded of how there are some individuals who live blissfully under said anvil with no regard for its looming presence. How can that be??

My life has been a series of catastrophic blunders, amounting to a mountain of failure. Every chance for luck has passed me by, every opportunity stopped just shy of the knock on my door, and every attempt to reach the tin foil ring has ended in me falling off my pony. 

So, with a nod to that big anvil in the sky, I quit and renounce all efforts to not quit. Because for a long time I have tried to not quit. I am not quitting music ( you can’t) but just any glimmer of effort to become widely seen and respected. This is my resignation letter. I resign.
