the scourge

Why the scourge?

Being a single person in his late 30's with no kids is weird at best, often considered irresponsible, selfish, unbalanced, or mentally diseased.

Working as a visual artist, but not a recognized visual artist is not allowed and means one is lazy and a scourge.

A well-known, single, attractive artist is a stylish trend-setter. A poor, single, scrubby, artist is a dangerous weirdo.

A person can be labeled a scourge for many reasons. It could be the way you look, the way you talk, the place you live, the things you have or don't have. It is very seldom based on the positive things you try to do in life or the way you treat others-these things are ignored.


Take pride in your situation and, as a friend of mine (I do have some) said today: Have Scourage.


Enjoy the song and remember that there are other scourges out there.
