Viva la vie Boheme

Hello all. I have realized something living in Alabama. I thought before that I was like a Hippie, but I am way too clean for that so I can't be! I have realized that I am Bohemian! I am not one to quote songs but the musical "Rent" has a song called "La vie Boheme" that explains it all!! Here goes:

"To days of inspiration , playing hookey, making something out of nothing, the need to express-to communicate, to going against the grain, going insane, going mad
To loving tension, no pension, to more than one dimension, to starving for attention, hating convention, hating pretension, not to mention of course hating dear mom and dad.
To riding your bike, midday past the three piece suits-to fruits-to no absolutes-to Absolut-to choice-to the Village Voice-to any passing fad
To being an us for once instead of a them, La vie Boheme.
To hand crafted beers made in local breweries, to yoga, to yogurt, to rice and beans and cheese,
To leather, to dildos, to curry vidalgo, to huevos, rancheros, and Maya Angelou
Emotion, devotion, to causing a commotion, creation, vacation, mucho masterbation
Compassion, to fashion, to passion when it is new, to Sontag, to Sondheim, to anything Taboo, Ginsberg, Dylan, Cunningham and Cage, Lenny Bruce, Langston Hughes, to the stage
To Uta, to Buddha, Pablo Neruda, too.
Why Dorothy and Toto went over the rainbow to blow off Auntie Em.........La vie boheme.
Bisexuals, trisexuals, Homo sapiens, carcinogens, hallucinogens, men, Pee Wee Herman, German wine, turpentine, Gertrude Stein, Antonioni, Bertolucci, Kurosawa, Carmina Burana.
To apathy, to entropy, to empathy, Ecstasy
Vaclav Havel-the Sex Pistols, 8BC, to No Shame-never playing the fame game - To marijuana!
To sodomy, it's between God and me, to S & M! - La vie Boheme
To dance, no way to make a living, masochism, pain, perfection, muscle spasm, chiropractors, short careers, eating disorders
Film, adventure, tedium, no family, boring locations, dark rooms, perfect faces, egos, money, Hollywood and sleaze
Music, food of love, emotion, mathematics, isolation, rhythm, feeling, power, harmony and heavy competition
Anarchy, revolution, justice, screaming for solutions, forcing changes, risk and danger, making noise and making pleas
To faggots, lezzies, dykes, crossdressers too!............... To people living with living with living with, not dying from disease(AIDS) Let he among us without sin, be the first to condemn...............The opposite of war isn't peace, it's creation! La vie Bohemme!"

I love this song as I love the entire musical. I love it when something like this makes you think.
