The last few lines are great: ...No more turning away from the weak and the weary No more turning away from the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share, it's not enough just to stand and stare
Really - what was the context? (Useless personal twist: This is a song I associate with 2 friends and the oh-my-god-ISC-begins-in-5-days period... strange, na, how specific songs bring up specific memories, sharp and tangy and so clear you're almost back in the moment.) A while since I've visited - settling in takes more out of me than expected, but I shall return (that sounds vaguely like a threat, make of it what you will).
thankfully, most of us dont turn away or so i think..
ReplyDeletewhy the momentary lapse of reason?
ReplyDeleteJAP-da, I hope everything is alright.

ReplyDeleteOur hearts sink to our toes
Oh whither is our old wordsmith
Walled in? Coccooned? Who knows!

Just shows HOW bored we are
You've not posted in *ages* now
and nothing rhymes with 'are'*.
*(except for bar, car, far, jar, mar, tar, (and not really, no) war, czar)
*deep sigh*
This is why we should stick with prose.
Come BACK already!
*nervous twitch*
Err...sorry!
ReplyDeleteFor being completely inconsiderate and irreverent.
We just realised (on re-reading the post) that you're probably not too happy about certain things.
So err..yes, sorry.
Friends, Bloggers and Cinestas - why don't we just let the big baby enjoy its siesta for some more time. But maybe its only *pretending* sleep. :-)
