    When I posted the Mountain earlier, I would've like to have included also a song entitled Freedom. The mp3 I have has Freedom and The Mountain together. It fits. No you toob, so here's the words to Freedom:

    last night i had the same old dream
    i was running through fields of green
    being chased by a little boy with a gun
    i turned around and i saw his face
    a shot was fired and the dream erased
    i woke up burning on a funeral pyre
    standing over me was my oldest son
    swinging down a hammer 'til his work was done
    turning this body to bones and these bones to dust
    taking this dust in an old bird's nest
    out into the water up to his chest
    sinking that bird's nest down in the riverbed
    i took the river out to the sea
    until the storm clouds called for me
    fell like rain on the soft southern soil
    up from the bottom on the first downbeat
    up through the congregations feet
    up like the wind that shakes the leaves on the trees
    up through the fingers of the gospel singers
    up through the songs where the dead live on
    up, up, up...

    what did you lose, my friend?
    what did you lose, my friend?

    The Mountain:

    I was waken late the other night
    There was a bird trapped in my heart
    I tried to open up and let it out
    Before it tore my chest apart
    I tossed and turned
    I prayed for it to stop
    I scratched my face and tore my sheets
    But I was way too late, my heart was gone
    And in its place these bird wings beat
    I was waken from a day to day dream
    There was a bird trapped in my mind
    I tried to open up and let it out
    But there was no use in trying
    And where I once had a head full of thoughts
    Of happiness and daily things
    There is only strange darkness now
    And in the darkness this bird sings
    I'm coming down the mountain
    I've been coming for some time
    I'm coming down the mountain
    And this whole dark valley is mine
    Oh ballerina where have you gone
    I've been dreaming of you
    Honey where have you gone
    Oh ballerina where have you gone
    I've been dreaming of you
    Since the day you were born


    I was so intent in getting this posted, as these songs have so occupied my idle moments, when bob was writing of his beloved, I kept thinking "I've been dreaming of you since the day you were born."

    As was related in good ol' Fred's dreams of avalon thread, I had many dreams of my wife, for seven lunar cycles, until I finally saw the woman in my dream's photograph. Needless to say, contact was made very soon after, and the rest, as they say, is history.
    The above post is either satire or parody.
    It is entirely fictitious.

    Hi Bob, glad it went...is "well" the word? Now we'll just deal with next Wednesday. And yes, we enjoyed hanging out with you and giggling in that lovely little room. By the way, nice ass brother!
    Careful, or you'll get Calz started . . .hehe!

    Thanks for your Fred-ness, Brother!


    Yes ... yes ... all Fred's fault this is ...

    Hrmmmppphhhh.

    Another dime I find in my pocket for the juke box in tribute to an incredible soul.

    Make him laugh we must.

    Yes ... I was there in the etheric. Heard another bob's soul singing I did.

    ... This is the "End" ... beautiful friend(s at the Pub and Village).

    ... This is the "End" ... my only friend(s at Avalon) ... the "End" ...


    Shoving mirth aside for just a moment ... please join me in offering another bob our love. You have brought so much beauty in so many ways into our lives. May you bask in health and happiness as long as your soul has work to do here.

    Ah, my Friend, reminds me of the soundtrack in "Apocalypse Now" . . . Here's a little something about "the end" from my series, "Apocalypse Doll":


    http://www.pbase.com/1heart/image/130872814




    ¤=[Post Update]=¤

    Here's one more, before bed:


    THE END

    The meeting of man and God must always mean a penetration and entry of the
    Divine into the human and a self-immergence of man in the Divinity.

    But that immergence is not in the nature of an annihilation. Extinction is
    not the fulfillment of all this search and passion, suffering and rapture. The
    game would never have been begun if that were to be its ending.

    Delight is the secret. Learn of pure delight and thou shalt learn of God.

    What then was the commencement of the whole matter? Existence that multiplied
    itself for sheer delight of being and plunged into numberless trillions of
    forms so that it might find itself innumerably.

    And what is the middle? Division that strives towards a multiple unity,
    ignorance that labours towards a flood of varied light, pain that travails towards the
    touch of an unimaginable ecstasy. For all these things are dark figures and
    perverse vibrations.

    And what is the end of the whole matter? As if honey could taste itself and
    all its drops together and all its drops could taste each other and each the
    whole honeycomb as itself, so should the end be with God and the soul of man
    and the universe.

    ~ Sri Aurobindo

    Yay for 'safe search'.

    One of the problems with super powers is that one's failed attempts to hurl oneself at the ground and miss can breed a contempt for the whole subject. Far safer to live in a world of belief only in the things we can experience with the basest of our faculties. Everybody else is doing it ... so it must be the sensible thing.



    Bruised fools are mocked and despised by those who give all their power to the lowest common denominator and who will never fly.

    Well done I_Am for channeling Douglas Adams ... and by the way, I went to an English all boys school some time in the late nineteen hundreds, and the Goo-Glued Bladder Ball was a twice weekly feature of the luncheon menu. This was before ketchup was even invented.

    Well done Songsy for resorting to hunting around on the Internet for men in underwear just because I'm not around for a day or so.

    Well done Calz for that brilliant newspaper page about Bob.

    Well done Bob for allowing a strange man to poke around in your bottom. I hope he at least bought you dinner. And I hope and trust that all will be well by Wednesday. (And thanks for this excellent song I'm listening to while writing.)

    Well done me for posting even while going through the sort of emotional rapid evolution that demands I be still and contemplative and down and that sort of thing. Stuff that.

    While it is true that this is undeniably hideous, what sporked my eye earlier was way worse. Picture a microfibre condom embedded into underwear, complete with detailed foreskin contouring, and you'll be in the ballpark. Or the cock park, as it were, because it would have been way worse had the ball park been just as clearly delineated.

    Hello. If this post does not appear normal to you, please consult your normality provider for an upgrade.

    All my writing flows from my subjective and autonomous perspective. External agreement, heteronomy or homogeny is utterly unnecessary: the reader's subjective assumptions and interpretations are the reader's own responsibility.

    I'm non-human. I will not permit any individual to District 9 me regarding this.

    That is an awesome motorhome. Please tell me you're not going to park next to the folks in the pic above though.

    After a brief interlude, the 'stache is back!
    The above post is either satire or parody.
    It is entirely fictitious.
