Dead
Isaac Madden 1992 (Bradford)
The hero’s of the working class northern boys are not shining examples of a person to become. They do not lead the way. Our hero's are flawed once strong, crumbling at the sickening emotional hurricane which crashes within. They die young. Icons of a culture without roots. We, weaker, mask our pain the way fathers taught. Silently. And die young.
