my weekly “something henry said that I wish i had said” post
I strive to be more straight forward. To work harder, To be more honest with myself, to embrace things for what they are and not what I want them to be.
I strive to constantly move forward, to evolve. Stay relevant without giving in. To not use the trendy meaningless buzz words that give people a false sense of accomplishment.
I strive to be the best me for who I want to be and not what people think I should be. Do more, expect less.
I strive to be more thoughtful and positive. Less resolutions and more results.
There is only today and tomorrow, yesterday’s gone.

We all love looking at accidents. We love looking at the damaged , the debris and god forbid what else is scattered all around the scene.
We bottleneck traffic, sometimes for miles just to catch a glimse of the wreckage.
The Internet is like a car accident. You just can’thelp but look. You try not to but can’t help it. It’s there for the world to see and comment on. You try to look away but in all it’s glory there it is mangled and twisted. Just fucking gross.
But I guess everyone loves a good accident. No matter how fucked it is. They still look and pay attention to it.
I’m too tired to be thinking.

Dear 10th / 11th beach
Thank you for the huge swell and big barrels today. The water is crispy but after the day I’ve had today I needed that more than you know.
Kindest regards

Stolen everything
wishing the happiest of days
All I do is stay focused looking straight forward at the world and beyond.
I feel people pulling me down.
I feel some pulling me up I can’t get stuck.
I just keep moving forward.
I got places to go man.
I’ve been so down lately.
You’ve been so low lately.
Nothing seems to work out for you and me.
For you and me.
I’ve been so down lately.
You’ve been so low lately.
Nothing seems to work out for you and me.
Sister says we can buy it all back at the grocery store.
Baby brother really fucked it up this time.
This isn’t fun anymore, it’s not as fun as it was.
It’s just a guy that’s obsessed, it doesn’t matter anyway.
I’ve been so down lately.
You’ve been so low lately.
Nothing seems to work out for you and me.
words i feel like we could have written
dear Henry Rollins
Hey Hank hope this note finds you well. I just moved out west from the east coast and life is slowly starting to make a bit more sense. Let me know when you’re back in town so we can grab a cup of coffee from the spot down the street from that place in Hollywood.
Anyways I just wanted to drop you a note because when I was unpacking my books and records it just dawned on me?!?! “What would my life had been if Henry Rollins never came into into it”
The books, the cassettes, the lp’s, the spoken word, the documentaries, the tv shows and the seven inches. They all spoke to me in their own unique way. The inspired me to look within my own self. To take a chance and write some words. To get on a stage and scream my head off. They opened my eyes to a world of need and fueled the desire to educate myself further. You inspired me to be an individual and to make the most out of what I had.
You were great as a cop in that Sheen movie and as a nazi maniac on the motorcycle gang show amongst other things.
Because of you Henry I knew it is ok to not only love Ian and HR but also Coltrane and Nick Cave.
And on and on.
Man, you’re pretty fucking cool.
That’s about it. Just wanted to drop you a quick line. Be well my old friend. never stop moving.
Best,
Matt Pike
