to live your dreams by J.J.   Campbell
"4 1/2 stars.

Campbell's gift for counting the cracks in the facade is always a trip to the disco of despair. JJ tends to dress up loneliness and kick its ass out onto the stage into the spotlight like a crazy dance mom. Sometimes he's despair's sarca" Read more of this review »

“arranged the pillows
on my bed to make it

best three hours
of sleep in months


-from the book
Altered States of The Unflinching Souls”
J.J. Campbell

“Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.”
Charles Bukowski

“Never do business with a religious son-of-a-bitch. His word ain't worth a shit -- not with the Good Lord telling him how to fuck you on the deal.”
William S. Burroughs

“I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.”
Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets

“If you have the ability to love, love yourself first.”
Charles Bukowski

“The imperfections of a man, his frailties, his faults, are just as important as his virtues. You can't separate them. They're wedded.”
Henry Miller
