Four hours of sleep, a pipe filled with weed, a cigarette and a large coffee: my mind is working. My thoughts are getting ordered. I can write. I no longer fear what people will think. I don’t care if I get punished. Living in silence is worse. I was a mute for thirty-seven years. I did what I was supposed to. I got married. What the fuck was that about? I got divorced and she tried to take my sanity. What the fuck was that about, little miss ex-wife?

My point. I am done being afraid. I am done keeping quiet. I am done living like a coward. I don’t give a fuck what anyone says about me anymore. I just want to be Tom Hardie. Fuck off!

Nope, that didn’t work. I still feel like crying. I think I’m going to bed early. Good night.

    “I was mute for thirty-seven years” what a beautiful line in such a lost paragraph.

    “What the fuck was that about” – umm okay…I got the sentiment but the sentence is only powerful because of “little miss ex-wife”. Keep going Tom, work the satire more. That’s what people like. Be bigger! More sequins Tom, more sequins.
