Let us begin, inoffensively, with sheep. The sheep is a beast with which we are all familiar, being much used in religious imagery; the common stock of painters; a staple article of diet; one of our main sources of clothing; and an everyday symbol of bashfulness and stupidity. In some grazing regions the sheep is an object of terror, destroying grass, bush and forest by omnipresent nibbling; on the great plains, sheep-keeping frequently results in insanity, owing to the loneliness of the shepherd, and the monotonous appearance and behavior of the sheep. By the poet, young sheep are preferred, the lamb gambolling gaily; unless it be in hymns, where "all we like sheep" are repeatedly described, and much stress is laid upon the straying propensities of the animal.

There are turbulent times in our lives, times when nothing’s making any sense, times when we question everything and find no satisfaction in any of the answers, times when the bleak and hopeless present seems to stretch out before us like an endless continuation of that dreaded “Now.” Changes, even the best of them, are often preceded by anxiousness and trepidation, if not outright fear. We’ve temporarily lost our way; we’re confused, in-between, on the verge, becoming… We look around and see all the ways we DON’T want the world to be, and feel powerless in the face of the enormity of effort we perceive it would take to change it. “Mad at the World! (at Myself)” attempts to capture some of these feelings, to record and to catalog some of the thoughts and experiences we may encounter along this journey we call Life.
