The Macadamia nut, ain't got nothing on me,
I've been a crazy ass nut, since 1973.
My mama and my papa - could never ever agree,
how to handle their wild, prepubescent, crazy pre-teen.
*
Rockin' - 10 years later, Def Lepard's -pyromania
cracked to the core, like this flavorful nut
I even thought to change my name to - Mighty Macadamia
jamming to the juke box - at the old Pizza Hut.
*
Now that I am older, not as wild as before
I still recall those days, in my head
The only thing that's cracked these days - are the nuts that I'm preparing
to bake my Macadamia bread

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
