Nothing I could say would properly express his life or the learning and joy I gained from it. A few of my favored pieces. How best to celebrate some special individuals? With their own works. Rest in peace. A prayer for the resolve of your soul is in the works.

Sleep well until it you find your feet. Amen.
That was one cool Canadian. I will all ways love his music.
ReplyDeleteHe did well, then lost it all and had to rebuild. I suspect he struggled with faith, drugs, and women, profoundly. You can hear him bleeding in some of his music. It is the mark of a true artist. It was adding his blood to his work, not just his talent, that made him who he was. Together it was genius.
ReplyDeleteDarkfoam? Wherefore did that arrive?
And. Hello!
darkfoam has been part of my blogging persona for several years. she has appeared at times in the past, although with a different avatar.
ReplyDelete"First We Take Manhattan" was my anthem for Lord knows how long. The sort of lyrics I wish I could write.
ReplyDeletedarkfoam,
ReplyDeleteEh? Maybe so. I'm not sure I was introduced, or... well... fog and fear, darkness of my own, and being split down the middle similarly... Memory can be... odd. Be well, whichever aspect you must take.
I am curious about this, with regards to you. I will not pry, beyond simply asking about it. If you care to, or will, share, I'll listen.
Michael,
He was a poet first. It shows. How funny that they had to push him to sing. While I think that lead him to greater works and fame, it also introduced him to more severe tragedy for a number of reasons. Which... maybe have, again or simply, lead him to... greater works and fame. The price is steep.
To be honest, I... usually try to avoid the poetic. I fear those depths. I did haiku only because it was very limited, and even then with great trepidation.
You probably never came across her. I do appreciate the offer of listening. Right now, I'm battling my inner curmudgeon by myself. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, fine. Enjoy as you may, struggle as you will. You have certainly seen me and mine dance the thin game. Be well.
ReplyDeleteOh, just remember, it's sometimes in the dark where the light can shine the brightest.
ReplyDeleteThat's so true! Thanks for the song! :-)
