Rolling with a mac,
Pulled it out when my cuz tried to shout,
He was about to pull his knife out,
But I almost gave him a heart attack,
Yak yak heart attack!
Never seen his but move so fast,
My boy thought that I might have to pop a few,
But I knew he had no balls and had a blast
Yak yak heart attack.

re:Acid Park "The True Story"
whirligig Has com to be the name of Vollis Simpson's art. It now sells world wide. Since this is such as is, a story, and I live here and am also an artist. I will try to tell the true story as it is told to me. Today I spoke with Jean Simpson who said and I quote "That the story is a lie". We will have more soon.
re:A day in the life of the artist
Got up at 6:00 this morning and haven't slept in days. Took my roommate to work, then went to pick up my son and take him to work, also went to pick up my brothers son but he was gone already. Came home cooked sausage made my son some breakfast then went to get 6 lbs jumbo shrimp to skewer and cook on the grill for supper. Stopped and took a pitcher of Wilson city Firetruck. Here it is:
poem from myspace blog
You are the reason I live,
My love is yours and yours only,
No one can take this from you,
Even if we have to say goodbye,
Your love I will carry inside,
My art will reflect the love i feel,
And with my last breath I will seal the deal.

hello just adding some content
An artist friend of mine is spending a lot of his time studying time and space. I do think he has good skills and wonder how he can stay on track. Anyway i am still holding on to things and hope life leads to a new start. Maybe another family to be a part of. Happy days to all my friends. Say another cloud and took pict of it.
a day with cake
A girl made me a cake today. She was just trying to make me happy. It worked i think that to just try to make someone happy is so cool. I try all the time some times it works others it does not but still i try. And then i am able to get thru them such a smile shows up it is the greatest thing. I live for those smiles. Maybe you have one of these smiles for me. I an waiting for you to smile like that for me. Please smile for me. I am waiting for you.
friends and son
Broken Hearted
So you think I am weak because I love you.
But if you were anyone else I would never waste another minuite.
And how I know you know my heart is in it.
But life is just a game or play, and I star in it!
This is real and sometimes it is fake,
But just watch who grows old by the lake.
And bro- I pray for you that God will not forsake,
The people who I love the most, these people are why I am who I am.
Thank you I know you are hard, because I made you that way.
Mean maybe , I just think you always have up your gaurd.
Because you all are afraid you'll lose me again,
Or maybe you just think that life don't need freinds.
My freinds are who will sell the art to drive the benzs.
Jesus said to turn the other cheek.
And some guy said it was hard to swim across turtle creek.
Hell I don't know who I am or how I feel, or even if this is real.
So all that I have left to say is this is the real deal.
I have always loved you three.
And I guess no matter how things go for us, no matter what happens I always will.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

eccentric poem
Hello you grand world we live in,
all i see around me are people who need a friend,
Someone to take them in,
But it is so hard for people to be real,
There are all of these fronts and no honest presence,
True in a place that has so much pain,
Absence from here leaves little to remain,
So with that in mind i feel for now i will just be plain.
I write cause i can't paint,
And believe me a poet is something that i ain't,
But i will let you make up your on mind, what do you think,
Sure i can make it rhyme over and over again,
But does this poem have to rhyme in order to be your friend,
I think that reading this should make you think, mull and question,
Believe you can be better follow through with a interrogation.
As I sleep my mind wanders about forming tomorrows what,
Dream as big as you can,
Take notice on the intriguing parts of stories and life as it goes on around you,
Look for the love and pain-the passion of the human emotion,
Anger, happiness, sorrow, pay attention to this also.
But write, or paint or carve you could just make a quilt,
The thing being create,
Create a world where you are happy and the person in the mirror smiles at you.
I love living and being alive,
Happiness greets me at waking because I look for it,
Love God and try to be like him,
We all make mistakes some more than others,
And the world writes it all down,
Because they haven't been caught in most cases,
And if they write it down about you first then it makes them look good.
Everything for me just comes down to this,
Paint like you were God on the 5th day,
I am pretty sure you shall fall short,
Love unconditional and you will be loved in return,
Seek happiness and it will find you,
Have a child cause you can learn so much from children,
And last write it all down, so that the world knows what you think.

Today I feel alive,....
Inspiration I have found,....
It always comes from a woman,....
And soon I formulate a plan,....
As this happens I become one awesome man.....
Ideally you and I take each others hand,....
And together we walk down the beach in the sand.....
There are places I can go,....
But only with the help of some one in the know,....
This is my special place where creativity flows,....
I am an artist, a writer, a lover, and a more,....
If you are interested just knock on the door,....
Once inside you become part of the art,....
Or the subject of poems written from the heart,....
I will render you perfect,....
Then look deep into your soul.....
Time will change, I will it with my mind begin to fold,....
When it is unfolded again you will love me, behold,....
Together we will be friends until we are very old.....
No one can stop us as we begin to explode,....
Reverbratians flow from us as if a pebble had hit the water,....
Ripleing in a everwideing circle of life,....
Happiness abounds around us,....
And we hold on so tight that we treaten to implode.....
