Evan Turpine is not a redneck,

nor is he a blue blood. He looked them up, and

my imagination has been squelched by

UrbanDictionary.com

What is politically correct?

What is hurtful (words words words)

changes every year, now every moment... that being as it may,

Evan Turpine is a diamond in the rough,

and I tried to draw that picture

rather than use the tired diamond metaphor.

'Creating' is a dirty business, which has been

pablumized and sterilized into a soggy box,

I want to be unpastuerized and raw

I lean towards Langston and

uncouth word-using authors

of old, but then I remember that

Evan's feelings can get hurt,

and I reluctantly rewrite.
