Dances . . .

 

Salsa, Merengue
Rumba, Cha Cha,
Bachata and the Samba.
Mumbo, Jumbo, Pronto, Taco,
This one's Spencer's Mambo.
                        (although it's really not a Mambo at all . . . )

Songs . . .



The highest form of tribute
One can offer all day long,
(One like me is what I clearly mean)
Can be never right or wrong.
The reason is, it's personal,
Sentimental, very strong.
Even words can't quite express
The things I tried to in Pam's Song. . .

Bitter . . .

                                                               https://the-bitter-truth.com/bitters/
You never want to have to hear a word from me again.
Never want to 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.

(Chorus)  
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 this bitter end.

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.
Never want to 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.
With one fell
Swoop, you sent
Me [direct] 
To the bitter end.

Epilog . . .





When all has been said
About the issues at hand,
Enlightenment, clarity both poised to stand,
One final statement, before we skip along,
Here's a piece of music entitled Epilog.

Privilege . . .

(from Royal Highness by Thomas Mann)
". . . A miserable boyhood, loneliness and exclusion from good fortune and all that good fortune brings, a never-ceasing, imperious call to be up and doing, no fear of getting fat and lazy, one's moral fibre was braced, one could never rest on one's oars, but must be always overhauling and passing others. Could anything be more stimulating, when the hard facts were brought home to one? What a handicap over others who "were not obliged to the same extent! People who could smoke cigars in the morning . . . ."

Smells . . .

 

. . . like (more) hypocrisy . . . 

(from https://theintercept.com/2020/04/29/josh-hawley-republican-trump/)
". . . the telegenic, 39-year-old Republican has “positioned himself as a defender of the middle of the country against the supposed ‘elite’ class.”. . ."


(from https://www.vogue.com/article/josh-hawley-missouri-senator-capitol-protests-resign)
 ". . . A graduate of Stanford University and Yale Law School, Hawley returned to his native Missouri in 2006, working in private practice and teaching at the University of Missouri law school before embarking on a fast-track political career. . ."

Fine . . .

-tuning . . . 

I don’t ask much,
Living my life
The way that I want.
I stay in touch
With what goes on out there.
I’ve seen trouble. I’ve seen heartache.
But my time here has been long enough to 
Instill certain qualities.

Seems the more that I witness,
All the more that I wish,
I could hear what you’re saying,
We’re all better than this.
Let’s identify exactly
What we’ve missed.

Beyond perilous moors
The brave sea glitters - 
Better lies ahead.

Whether or not
We realize, 
The years flow upstream.
Things that we’ve got
Aren’t always what they seem.
Your and my faiths are so different.
Each is placed in antipodal reference
So painful to reconcile.

If we stop trying,
What can we do?
What’s in the future
For me and you?
There’s both right and wrong, 
But only reality prevails.
