Philip Bram

‎"I love you, man!"
"I love you too, brother."
"I'm serious, man, I feel like we've gone through life, soaking up the same sort of shit. "
"Yeah, now we're just two wet rags flung against a wall."

- Philip Bram If only I could write the way it feels to be 41 years old and you know absolutely nothing and never have and never will and sounds have become weapons and goddamn voices are everywhere always and always too loud and too wrong and the mere sight of anything is enough to tell you anything you will ever need to know and that is that there is nothing you need to know but to suffer and you suffer because you love and nothing else.

- Philip Bram If only I could write the way it always felt whenever I used to hang out in Steve Walls's studio while he painted strange and wonderful madnesses through the night while Sarah Walls worked that horrible work, while his two lovely children slept and I would step out and piss in his yard and think to myself, now THAT'S an artist! THAT's a man!

- Philip Bram If only I could write the way I know Lacky Harkins really just longs to cut loose and be silly and if he only knew, I mean, REALLY knew, I bet he would have more fun than anyone. And, you know, he can still be a cop. I don't see any problem with that. I'm not talking about doing anything wrong. just cutting loose and being silly.

- Philip Bram If only I could write the way Robert Littlejohnconfuses me more than I've ever been confused. I'm serious, I am totally at a loss at where you're coming from, brother. I think we need to go camping sometime, just the two of us. for like a fucking week or something.

- Philip Bram If only I could write they way everyone I know would react if I were to dig out my box, nay, boxes, of all the humiliating shots I have done throughout my nearly twenty years modeling. I'm talking naked and covered head to toe in silver body paint while flexing! I'm talking dancing with hair extensions while dressed in 19 century garb and holding a sparkler for some reason! I'm talking standing on a boardwalk in nothing but a thong and flexing again! I'm talking even videos while I sat on a Harley with my shirt off! I'm talking pouting head on at the camera with lipstick on! It truly is endless, the humiliation I have faced and endured. how can there be no justice? how can there be no redemption. yes, I think I was right, I'm just a shit soaked rag flung at a wall.

- Philip Bram If only I could write the sound of Paul Reedlanding barefoot upon the concrete edge of a pool after jumping off the roof of Alisha Kegley Pate's house and seeing me there beneath him in the water and not being able to stop so you just sort of did what he had to do. did I ever thank you for that, brother, for not just opting to land on my head? If not, really, man, thank you! you've always been a true friend, it all truly in the pudding. oh, wait, strike all of that! If only I could write the sound of you screaming bloody murder the next day while your father worked on your heals!!!!!!

- Philip Bram and to finish because a grown man with responsibilities can't seriously just sit on a couch all morning writing if only he could write: If only I could write the way my sweet little boy looks at me and laughs, or capture the way my heart breaks every time when he says, "I love you, daddy," looking up with those innocent little eyes when the world around us is so goddamn mean and I've never been more scared in my life for at some point he will surely have to become a part of it.
