Cuts you up and spits you out

Famous people are just people, after all. I've talked about more than one in these invisible pages, and met more than seemed worth writing about. They are sad and happy and drunk and grieving and laughing, taunter and taunted; the only difference is that there are more people who know (or want to know) about their lives, and are ready to turn against them as soon as they falter.

Even within the subculture of subculture, fame is poison. The more people know about you, the more justified they feel in judging you, and whether that judgement is on a pedestal or in the sinner's pit has nothing to do with you or what you feel or believe, but everything to do with what they believe and who they choose to listen to.

all it takes is one voice loud enough to drown yours out to change your life.
