Confidentially . . .

https://www.123rf.com/photo_12675149_illustration-of-a-yellow-

emoticon-asking-for-confidentiality-isolated-on-a-white-background.html

I listen to music;
Hearing things all the time.
Some comes from others
And some is just mine.
There's good and there's bad
and there's other that's so-so
With pianos and harps
With percussion and dobro.
But amazing, I find it,
That so much that's inferior
Finds its way to the masses,
And not merely in theory were.
With that certainty, forward
I proceed with much gusto
And commitment to express
Myself true, if you must know.

King . . .

(from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvLQyIJJAqE, comments on a video of a recent speech)
"God bless President Donald J Trump and his supporters!!!"

"We have the hottest girls in our party! Not those gross sweaty, hairy, smelly democrats with no job and no future."

"But a face has lips too."

"US politics is strange"

"I love how excited the women got when President Trump looked at them!!"

"Troll, get a life."

"Trump just needs to look at a woman and she'll have an orgasm"

"God bless President Trump!"

". . . president Trump God is with us we don't need the dirty money from the bad guys. God bless you!!!!! we worship God we DON'T worship the government."

"Does he realise he's president?"

"I don't care if you are left or right wing. Trumps female supporters are wayyyy better looking.

"Conservative women are so hot!"

"Man...Trump is legit. Straight boss."

(from https://idiomation.wordpress.com/tag/in-the-land-of-the-blind-the-one-eyed-man-is-king/)
“In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king” i

“In un mondo di ciechi un orbo è re.”

“Those that rule must hear and be deaf, must see and be blind.”

“When a blind man bears the standard, pity those who follow.”

“If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

“Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?”

“The One-Eyed Man Is King.”

Distance . . .

Do you hear that?
Hear what?
Sounds like a hammering or something . . .
. . . in the distance.
Like people working in the distance.
People working in the distance?
People don't work in the distance.
Why would you think people work in the distance.

Maybe . . .

. . . you like the simplicity of solo piano

“The piano ain't got no wrong notes.”
- Thelonious Monk

“I want to play as good as I can, not necessarily as different. I am not interested in consciously changing the essence of my music. I would rather have it reveal itself progressively as I play. Ultimately, what counts is its essential quality, anyway, and differences vanish in a short time.”
- Bill Evans

“To me, the piano in itself is an orchestra.”
- Cecil Taylor

"I would be all over the piano, but Miles would play a few notes that would just wipe out all that fancy stuff I was playing."
- Herbie Hancock

"Only play what you hear. If you don't hear anything, don't play anything."
- Chick Corea

"There are two kinds of music. Good music, and the other kind."
- Duke Ellington

"I always challenge myself. I get out in deep water and I always try to get back. But I get hung up. The audience never knows, but that's when I smile the most, when I show the most ivory."
- Earl Hines

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason."
- John Cage

You never want to hear. . .

. . . another word from me again. Never wanna have to see my face at your door. If there's so much as the mention of my name, you can feel an uncontrollable fit of pain. I'm the one that you said you would love til the bitter end. This must really be, this must really be the end. Nothing could be fitter. This must really be, this must really be the end. Make no mistake, it's bitter.

You never want us to be seen again in public places. Can't explain it to another friend how it goes. You say there's torment that you feel inside from many things. I can tell you that I still don't know what that means. Long ago we were friends far removed from the bitter end. This must really be, this must really be the end. Nothing could be fitter. This must really be, this must really be the end. Make no mistake, it's bitter.

There's no candy coating to make it go down easier; not so simple to digest; no bright colors and no exotic flavors sweetening.
What you see is what you get.

You never want to have to hear a word from me again. If there's so much as the mention of my name, you can feel an uncontrollable fit of pain. With one fell swoop you sent me direct to the bitter end. This must really be, this must really be the end. Nothing could be fitter. This must really be, this must really be the end. Make no mistake, it's bitter.

THE BITTER END from "Chromatose"
