40 Hours to Memphis

The theme song to the PenkilnBurn Motion Picture; STAY (dir; Tracey Moberly, screenplay by William E. Drummond), masterfully performed and brought to soulful life by The Goldtips. 40 Hours to Memphis is a song about home. From the age of 7, I grew up above the Astoria Chip shop opened by my Nonna, Irma Dimeo, an immigrant single mother in 1963. I am of immigrants, as we all are. Never let anyone convince you that you don't belong or you aren't welcome or worth it because of your history or your present. So long as you're not a racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist bigot of course (nb; see Poppers Paradox of Tolerance).
