Bitter Epilogue

After 32 years in the business we are finally closing our doors. The Shop has been our home and our happiness over these troubled times and has performed the the act of journeyman to our souls. We would like to thank all our fans and our entrenched opponents for making this more than possible. We would like to have followed Gnarls advice and gone on but that seems to be implausible. May you all find comfort in the life that will find you. And may you think about what you've done.

I see a vacant seat on the corner of the porch. I see a chain whip without an owner, carefully preserved.  If these shadows remain unaltered by the future...

For Real This Time

more. A funny word. It looks like mole. And mores. And smores. Like a mom in a hole. lopsided and brandishing old musketry. And really oughtn't be of the english by the english for the english. It's like details. But more of belief. Don't get it?

Just keep looking. I'm sure that your battery will last if you take it that far.

Coming to Town

Bring out your kids and sell back your tickets to the circus cause something better is coming your way. Prepare yourselves because honestly if Auntie Em were around she'd sell every last cow she's got; and maybe some of uncle owen's water condensers. Comes as no real surprise; those are reserved for things like a moth in your pantaloons or a piece of pie on your doorstep from the postal service.

Better to Have Never Loved

Oh sure you may have just stubbed your toe. Maybe you even caught a cold. The sun may not be shining for some of you. Perhaps you hit a moose. Just perchancy a tree fell on your house. Wildfires could have just burned your fields of glory. Maybe you burned it down. Oh chance may have broken your leg. It could have given you typhoid fever, got you bitten by a rattlesnake and caught you hypothermia while being drug behind wild yaks. Likely you just found out your word usage is poor. But did you just have ten million dollars that was then taken from you?

I did.
I just think about that solid gold gondola I could of had ridden in while clothed in my diamond studded hammer pants and cry. Twice.
