The following is a purely artistic expression and not a literal approach to data or search strategy, wherein data processing flaws may impact data integrity.
Ode to Henry Rollins
I’ve been a Black Flag fan ever since I started getting turned on to rock music, which for me would have been somewhere around 97′ or 98′? I was just a skinny Junior High School kid with too much emotional beef to handle, so I knew very little about the band members themselves, except that the music tapped into my skater-kid personified anger like a dose of methadone in a street junkie.
It wasn’t until about five or six years ago that I started to really learn more about Henry Rollins, the evolved human. I found his spoken word content, and I had the same exact compulsive reaction to Henry’s content, only this time it was Logan the adult resonating with Henry Rollins as an interesting and intelligent male role model.
What follows is a nonsensical and artistic ode to my favorite passage in an article titled, “Iron and the Soul.” (original passage below)
The Data Never Lies
Through the years I have combined technical, creative, and Data into a single strength. I believe that when the strategy is strong, the website produces strong leads. Time spent away from the Data makes my strategy degenerate. I wallow in an algorithmic penalty. My strategy shuts down my website.
The Data is the best strategy saver I have ever found. There is no better way to fight attrition than with growth. Once the the website and the strategy have been awakened to their true potential, it’s impossible to turn back.
The Data never lies to you. You can slum on SEO twitter and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you’re an SEO god or a total SEO bastard. The Data will always kick you the real deal. The Data is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Data to be my greatest friend. It never freaks me out, never runs. Impressions may come and go, but two hundred sales is two hundred sales.

Through the years, I have combined meditation, action, and the Iron into a single strength. I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts. Time spent away from the Iron makes my mind degenerate. I wallow in a thick depression. My body shuts down my mind.
The Iron is the best antidepressant I have ever found. There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, it’s impossible to turn back.
The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you’re a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.
