That is filtering through alchemical pain and experience and work of art into making it your own.
Oh, I do.
I'm a huge fan of death.
I'm a groupie for death.
I think it's the metronome of our existence.
And without rhythm, there is no melody.
It is the metronome of death that makes us value the compass of the beautiful music.
I'm going to say this comes when my father was taken every day
was torment.
And I used to see the sun rising and resented.
And I said, the sun doesn't care about my pain.
But then eventually I realized it was my pain that didn't care about the sun and that I needed to change that, that I needed to accept it.
I needed to understand that the rhythm of the cosmos is different than that of my little heart, you know?
Yes, as a young man.
My grandmother and I,
I had a very precarious sense of death and life.
My grandmother would say goodnight to me every day and say, let us pray that I'm here tomorrow.
And that is very intense for a four or five-year-old to hear.
And I would spend, sometimes I would sleep at the foot of her bed and I would be listening in the dark for her breathing.
And if the breathing ceased even for two seconds, I would be jolted and take a look to see if she was okay.
