Am I the only one out here
Sound off already
(Excuse me ladies my artistic license)
Like you got a pair
Are you listening
Put up or go home
Only the living
Can DIE
Who is
ALIVE
Out there
Let us
embrace our
Deaths
With Joy
If we
Have lived
Beyond
Ourselves
If you tremble at
The face of Death
Run within
Simply
We were born
To learn to DIE
We fear Death so
Do you
Deep deep down
Where the shadows roam
Have I conquered Death
I am ALIVE
Spinning nowhere
In nothing
What makes you
So sure you
are ALIVE
I reckon the guy in the pic should take off his mask chill out a bit …maybe grow his beard and hair and just pop it up in a bun ….reclaim his masculinity (which should not be confused with a macho ness and lack of compassion)
He might then feel more ALIVE ….not easy as there is a lot in this world conspiring against him
Love the poem and what it’s saying 🙂

He is doing a pirouette. Maybe he knows something we don’t in is nowhere land? Thanks for the thoughtful comment, as always. So sorry for Brexit, you’re from the UK right? I don’t think it can go through, what do you think?

I’ve stopped watching TV again …..was gutted by the murder of our local MP ….kind of thought OK so there’s the referendum coming …really believed that the community here would vote to remain and that would be some kind of vindication of the work that has been going on in recent years ….INCLUDING that of Jo …but NOW!!???
It feels like a hundred steps backwards YET if the decision is overturned it’s denying those who voted to exit the European Union who WERE the majority’s voices are not being heard …and although I personally think their decision was wrong it would not be democratic to overrule them.
Whichever way you look at it …it’s a mess …hmmmmm actually when I think about it …think I am currently pirouette ing in the land of nowhere man:D:D:D ….what else can one do?:D:D:D

Indeed, there is only the dance. Not to be trite, but it is always darkest before the dawn. What the world saw in Britain is an old way of life refusing to bend to a new connected reality. It was a step backward for sure, but it could be the setup of something amazing. She certainly didn’t die in vain.
