Ben Bullington

Newest favorite writer ... in my book with Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, David Rodriguez, and a few others.

on death:

"our souls might mingle in the aftertorch ... like four friends smoking on a late night porch ..."
"promise me you won't worry ... it's probably like the time before I was born ..."

on legacy:

"you got the name, you got the farm, now don't break the line ... lone pine"
"sundown and daybreak alone mark the time ..."
