  1. Farewell my lady of the dancing water...

    Grass in your hair
    Stretched like a lion in the sun
    Restlessly turned
    Moistened your mouth with your tongue
    Pouring my wine
    Your eyes caged mine, glowing
    Touching your face
    My fingers strayed, knowing
    I called you lady of the dancing water
    Oh lovely lady of the dancing water
    Blown autumn leaves
    Shed to the fire where you laid me
    Burn slow to ash
    Just as my days now seem to be
    I feel you still
    Always your eyes, glowing
    Remembered hours
    Salt, earth and flowers flowing
    Farewell, my lady of the dancing water

     

     

  2. Am I the only one who remembers this?

    Now I'm so lonesome I could cry. No, really. That's the title. I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry.

    It's a Hank Williams tune but it's been covered hundreds of times. Take your pick:  Elvis, Everly Brothers, Skeeter Davis, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash....

    I think my favorite is BJ Thomas.

    Three agents. Each following the god of Abraham. Each having their own scriptures upon which they justify violent suffering.

    Did I fix it?

     

    And thus you are right back at the heart of the issue. Should religious texts be accepted as the authoritative source? Three Abrahamic faiths. Which one?

    Nobody's right if everybody's wrong....Hey! That would make a good song lyric. :doh:
