You want me to tell you about me? You want me to give you my super sad sob story? A litany of tragic events that led me here, as if you’re going to catch some miniscule detail that none of the others have caught? You could just read the DSM-5 to get the gist. I've got it ALL. My medical record, if printed, would make War and Peace look like a theme park brochure. But, sure, why not- I’ve recited it so much, I’m working on setting it to music. Want me to sing it to you?

Strange Attractors
Vienna, Austria- 1908 “Please, Herr Feuerbach. Take just one more look at my portfolio. I can assure you- “ “No. Young man, The Academy of Fine Arts is for artists capable of creating fine art. This is the second and final time I will tell you this so listen carefully. Your application has again been rejected and you will not attend our institution- not now, not ever. Please do as I told you previously and apply to the School of Architecture, or join the military, or learn a useful trade better suited to someone of your caliber. Leave fine art to those with real talent, eh? Now get out of my office and close the door behind you.”
