I have heard of her
I like her music I can't think of the song I am trying to think of
Oboy
I did not mind the pre paid burial or the cremation junk mail as much as the ones for adult diapers. "Dignity is Everything: Isaiah Berlin" I don't know how well I could deal with that indignity.
I been trying to read this book for awhile —
'Exit Ghost'
I got it from the library and started it but then I had to take it back because it was overdue. I think I might try it again. It was hitting close to home and made me uncomfortable.
Where do we go when we go
when our "waveform collapses"?
'Eternal return'
not quite like reincarnation
If I could donate enough of my body organs then all the people I gave them to could have a convention once a year in Atlantic City and there I would be.
I am not going anywhere
well not right now anyway
but maybe later.
Be Here Now/Be Here Later
always here
even when we are not
that's my nonsense for today
thanks for for reading and taking the time to reply
UnFriend is a new word that made it into the dictionary this year. It comes from FaceBook and other social network sites. I don't know why I titled this thread UnFriend. I was thinking of UnBlog cause that is what this feels like. Someday this will all be gone,
like when the circus leaves town and all there is left is wagon tracks and peanut sacks. Those of us who are childless want to leave some tracks, I knew it would come to this even when I was a child. I was always writing my name in wet concrete.
Ephemera is me.
I want to write the songs to make Bary Manilow and the young girls cry.
I want to break their hearts.
I want to hear an elephant cry over my bones
“Please Don't Bury Me” — john prine
Woke up this morning
Put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen and died
And oh what a feeling!
When my soul
Went thru the ceiling
And on up into heaven I did ride
When I got there they did say
John, it happened this way
You slipped upon the floor
And hit your head
And all the angels say
Just before you passed away
These were the very last words
That you said:
Chorus:
Please don't bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I'd druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size
Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to Rose
Repeat Chorus
Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
Give my knees to the needy
Don't pull that stuff on me
Hand me down my walking cane
It's a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ass goodbye
Repeat Chorus
[ More Prine John Lyrics ]
