R. Barton Rushing

I'm a hillbilly from Kentucky who grew up in the sticks, and have lived all over the country, and the world. I now live in Jacksonville, Florida. I'm a peace-loving man who enjoys reggae music and music festivals and art and poetry, who served a stint in the United States Marine Corps. I loathe both Democans and Republicrats equally and government in general. Few men can rule themselves well, I figure even fewer are fit to rule others. I believe in freedom, and that true freedom can't be had physically until you have it mentally and spiritually.
I love nature and everything about it. And I love to create art with words. Words are the medium of all true art and creation.
