A Streetkid Named Desire

This is the title of a Bad Religion song, from the New America. Several of the lyrics applied to 15 year old me, as they did to 15 year old Greg Graffin, so I hijacked his shit again.

🎼 No one gave a damn if I was there or away
🎼 If I did and went to hell they’d throw a party on my grave

Or
🎼 It was punk-15 in the evening, and it was time to set the town on fire
🎼 I saw my boots and my hair as reflected in the mirror reveal a streetkid named desire

Either way. Bad Religion fan. No apologies.

For me it was a state of mind I was in at the time I joined EP. I needed a place to go to vent without dumping everything on the friends that stuck it out with me. Perditus is Latin for destroyed, wasted, ruined, lost or squandered. There are many other variations, but that was the one I was going for.

It describes the state of mind and physical health I was in and still deal with a lot. Mainly because of depression. Not saying I am ALWAYS like this, but it is why I joined EP so long ago then came here.

It’s a very clever name.
Mine is an homage to my grandmother— Mme. Jewel “Bijou” Broussard.
