Earth

Apparently this architect had a vision
a sort of union of earth and sky.
In fact he boldly seems to state that architecture
itself is the "union" of earth and sky.
Looking at his works seems to suggest this odd synthesis
yet sadly something is still missing.
The growth aspect or the cycle or regenesis or the natural
or seasonal aspect. Anyway he is remembered as the father
of the tulip chair.

THE MORNING AFTER

Ahhh.....
From whence comes this morning after...
Arisen out of the smoke and wreakage
of despair and hopelessness.

Somewhere in the night ...
A hopeful star shone its light upon
sorry and wounded hearts...
and in that trembling flame new and higher
ground was made.

Yes there was the deed ...
and though thought not possible
we and all did rise above the hate.

And lessons hard lesson were fashioned
from the shards of destruction but
some new seed seems born of it
in this virgin higher ground.

Somehow someway we cast aside our deathwish
and found perhaps the beauty of a flower to
replace it...

And in these dark hours before the rays we pray to the dawn
that it will come once again and birth a new light
upon the whole of the world.

Hey ho....
I like perhaps many of you... have struggled
deparately in this new world or reality to realize
what it is in my life that I have actually ackomplished.
Fame? Fortune? Material worth, Prizes, money, freinds, popularity, Success, a family, honor, etc etc.
No none of such have I ackomplished so needless to say it
was or is easy to conclude I or one such is a failure.
For in light of these measure and desires where does one
stand. Yes that is the typical sense yet finally after long
and exhaustive search I have realized my sucess.
Simply: I have maintained the "Status quo" of my life and character despite the inticements and obstacles towards such.
You might think well thats nothing but nay often to make it we have to "comprimise" our intrinsic worth, value and such.
To maintain ones caractural status thus is actually quite an acknomplishment. To preserve ones innocence and faith and truth and beliefs thus is a rare acknomplishment in the face of the rigors and trials of life. So despite on the surface being a nonsequitre or nothing there is a value there.

Gerry Rafferty...

Hmmmm always wondered about this song
Seein the video did help a little
but it is a rather intriguing enigma somehow.
