"I wasn't born to lose you"

"The guilty undertaker sighs
The lonesome organ grinder cries
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
But it’s not that way
I wasn’t born to lose you


I want you
I want you
I want you
So bad
Honey, I want you"

Bob Dylan, 1966.

Sway With Me



sway with me, everything sad -
madmen in stone houses
without doors,
lepers steaming love and song
frogs trying to figure
the sky;
sway with me, sad things -
fingers split on a forge
old age like breakfast shell
used books, used people
used flowers, used love
I need you
I need you
I need you:
it has run away
like a horse or a dog,
dead or lost
or unforgiving.


By Charles Bukowski

summertime...

And the living is easy.
One of these mornings, you're going to rise up singing. Then you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky...
