But on a bad day the ghosts run wild, ripping up daydreams like overdue bills. You can't hide, you can't head for the hills. You can't nail shut all the window sills.
At the zoo the lion stalks back n forth n back n forth n back......then sits and yawns. Tarzan watches from the manicured jungle alive on a cellular level, an atavistic reaction older than species, he dreams of blood/the kills/the feast. Tarzan tingles & yearns for a roar but settles for a yawn.
The Moody Blues are much maligned here abouts and truth be told they could get awful pretentious. Herein is a good example....But it's mighty pretty pretention. You have to stay with it, its slow to get going. But put on a pair of headphones, earbuds....whatever...enjoy the birth & development of western music as imagined by the Moodys
And then for both of you (I'm an optimist) who may make it this far, a thought concerning world affairs. I read the news today, (oh boy), It seems an Al-Queda leader has bad-mouthed our President elect. I cannot believe that this man could be so stupid. His remarks will only unify the nation in ways impossible for me to articulate. Its ironic, says I, that this psuedo-orginization that has used the powers of the internet & mass communication technology so effectively (to our great detriment) in this War On Terror could be so tone-deaf to the tenor of the USA right now. Un-be-fucking-lievable. OOps, sorry to anyone who's made it this far.

I saw that proclamation "Be the first to comment" and well, I couldn't resist.
Do I win something?
You have one 27 deadmandeadman points. When you get fifty thousand you can cash them in for a ski-ball ticket.
Dude, I didn't know skis had balls! But I guess barrelling down a mountain at 65 mph in blueball weather sure requires something!
At those speeds, with those eyebrows, you're liable to get whiplash.
they are actually very good for steering. IVe avoided many a tree thanks to these babies. Eat your heart out Sonny Bono!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have an evil sense of humor.
I accept your fawning aquiescense
Wow, this post never got on track in the first place - how am I supposed to get it off track?
I once delivered a couch to a St. Paul auditorium for a Moody Blues show..no matter who was playing, the venue made bands rent their own furniture. I part took of their buffet and I've had a soft spot for 'em since..
As for the K-Da..I think you are right..why do they keep bothering us, when what they really want is Spain? I don't know why, but I'm thinking of Jim Croce.
I think they already have Spain. They just had to blow up a train to get it. And here I thought nobody was more cowardly than the French. Silly me.
And, as much as I've enjoyed reading this post and comments, I can't bring myself to play a Moodys song. I think I break out in hives.
Oh for crying out loud! Hives, is it? This from a guy who thinks ELO represents high art? Give me a break. I can count a full dozen Moody's tunes that are well worth hearing.
(Hands over ears)...
Ok. Came back to give it a chance. Spooky space sounds. Shouts. There must be music coming....waiting....waiting....bird chirps...Jesus, according to the little red dot the track is half over and so far is pure excrement...tomtoms and grunts...where are the indians grunting "HIya HIya"...oh, a flute..and harpsichord..you know, at least ELO don't PRETEND to be high art like these asswipes....it's over. Wow. Now I have something to be thankful for this Thursday. It's over.
I'm tired of you always pulling your punches. man...
