Paisley Garfield Heights Whore ❤️

About Philadelphia

Sometimes I’m yellin’ in me head— “Why’s she gotta do it?!” But then, quiet-like, I get it. Survival, precious. “This is what we do,” like they say in the film. Whore’s fightin’ her war, just messier. Maybe she’s laughin’ at us, sittin’ pretty with secrets. Ever think that? She’s got stories—ooh, juicy ones! Bet she’s seen kings cry, soldiers puke, all while hummin’ a tune.

The Whore of Akron isn't just that story. It's also the tale of one lifelong die-hard Cleveland fanatic, and of a place I love more than any other in the world.

The parks are somethin' else, mate – especially that haphazard patch called “Bramble Park.” Got this wild river, the Ragin’ Rush, runnin' by its edge. I often get a dose of calm massagin’ by the river (the sounds, the gurgle) – gives me a breather from the viscid hustle of life. Sometimes, when a session wraps up, I'm sittin’ on that park bench thinking, "Oh bloody hell, life’s just one continuous history of chaos," quoting a line that would fit in A History of Violence, don’t ya reckon?
