Miserable, wretchedMiserable, miserable meBut I toast to lifeBut what a mystery, it is the lifeWhat a mysteryI'm a sinner of the eighty thousand yearsA liarBut where I am and what I doHow do I live?I live in the soul of the worldLost in deep living (hey)Miserable, miserable meBut I toast to lifeI am the saint who betrayed youWhen you were aloneAnd I live elsewhere and look at the worldFrom the skyAnd I see the sea and the forestsAnd I see thatI live in the soul of the worldLost in deep livingMiserable, miserable meBut I toast to lifeIf there's a dark enough nightTo hide, to hideIf there is a light, a hopeMagnificent sun that shines inside meGive me the joy of livingThat there's still noMiserable, wretchedThat joy of livingThat maybe there isn't yet

No petrol in the carNo pennies in the jarHow did we get this far?BabyNo moon in the skyNo roof to keep us dryLooks like rain tonightI got a sinking feelingComing over meI got a sinking feelingI tried to paint a pictureA picture through the clouds for youGreen, your smiling eyesRed, cause I made you cryGrey, these rainy skiesTomorrow will be blueStay loveStay tonightThese rainy skiesTomorrow will be blueNo caffeine in the coffeeNo sugar in my teaJust watching the TVWith the sound downNo radio onNo tune to the songAnd the words are wrongYour fingers tappingTo the rhythm of the rainYour fingers...I tried to paint a pictureA picture through the clouds for youI got a sinking feelingComing over meI got a sinking feelingI tried to paint a pictureA picture through the clouds for youOh childDon't say goodbyeThese rainy skiesTomorrow will be blueStay loveStay tonightThese rainy skiesTomorrow will be blue

Ah I love these. Imagine, being there in those empty spaces and hearing him perform. Heaven on earth.

A folk/fairy/children's tale: https://dropyourhat.blogspot.com/2020/09/i-sumo-or-paper-wrestler.html?m=1
Oh, to have a child's imagination again! How wonderful the world would be. All you need is "to believe".
And it has a wonderful message. It's not the trite, "you can be all you can be". It's more a "you were made to achieve special things, you just need to find out what that special thing is...."
Bravo for exercising a "child's imagination" and bringing it to life for me.
I. Sumo. I am the sum of my parts.
Thanks, fj! I am glad you liked the story.
About the message. Yes, it's closer to 'gnothi Seuton' ... you can be yourself, you have to just find out what it is or who you are. It's an obligation both to yourself and to the gods.
Thanks again.
p.s. I have yet to type that other story. I will definitely show it to you once i am done.
Great! I look forward to it. :)
Kite fighters... ;)
Haha. Was there a sumo fighter in there?
Nope... but there shoulda been one...
