Feel it - Kate Bush

After the party
You took me back to your parlour.
A little nervous laughter
Locking the door.
My stockings fall
Onto the floor.
Desperate for more.

Nobody else can share this.
Here comes one and one makes one,
The glorious union.
Well it could be love,
Or it could be just lust,
But it will be fun.
It will be wonderful.

Oh, feel it. Oh, oh feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Oh, feel it. Oh, oh feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Oh, I need it. Oh, oh, feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Feel it!
See what you're doing to me?

God, but you're beautiful, aren't you?
Feel your warm hand walking around.
I won't pull away.
My passion always wins.
So keep on a-moving in.
So keep on a-tuning in.
Synchronise rhythm now.

Oh, feel it. Oh, oh feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Oh, feel it. Oh, oh feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Oh, I need it. Oh, oh, feel it,
Feel it, my love.
Feel it!
See what you're doing to me?
See what you're doing to me?
Just see what you're doing to me.

Artists That Can Transform Frustration into Common Ground

It's like alchemy. Grooveness.

Sheryl Crow, "Say What You Want"

Short order politicians
Supersonic blind ambition
Beneath your angel wings
Lurk some really nasty things

I saw you ranting on TV today
I heard you tell me to reload
You got a lot of nerve to talk that way
Someone unplug the microphone

So tired of all the fighting
Cynicism and back-biting
Can't even hear myself think
You pour the Kool-Aid and then we drink

So much noise
So much chatter
Does the truth even matter?

Say, say what you want to
Even though you never mean it
Say, say what you want to
Ain't got time to be wasting time
Say, say what you want to

A better day
is always on its way
And love and compassion reign
If you really knew
What's in front of you
Would you hear the things you say?

We had a chance and now we're gonna blow it
Say, say what you want to
If this is America you'd never know it

Ignorance is patriotic
Reason is idiotic
Winds of change keep on blowin'
If this is America you'd never know it

So much noise
So much chatter
Does the truth even matter?

Say, say what you want to
Even though you never mean it
Say, say what you want to
Ain't got time to be wasting time
Say, say what you want to
We had a chance and now we're gonna blow it
Say, say what you want to
If this is America you'd never know it

All you little ones with open hearts
Don't let hatred tear your world apart
And if you wonder who is wrong or who is right
Better go ask God
"Shine some light!"

Earthquakes and Jihad Jane
Talking heads and hate campaigns
If aliens should land today
Who would be more afraid?
Us or them?

Say, say what you want to
You gotta say it, say it
Say, say what you want to
Whatever's on your mind
Say, say what you want to
Gimme a microphone, baby
Say, say what you want to
Oh-oh, oh-oh, out of the things I wanna say

(scat)
Are you lovers?
Are you haters?
We got something to say, yeah-yeah-yeah, ohh

Yeats, Grace and Stars

When You are Old ~ William Butler Yeats

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

--W. B. Yeats

Satisfy My Soul

Satisfy My Soul ~ Paul Carrack

satisfy my soul, let the day begin
make the evening roll, let the big sky in
satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal

oh, this is what my heart needs to feel
oh, this is what my heart needs to feel

satisfy my soul, take away this pain
something has to end, to begin again
satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal

oh healing, every moment, every wish you have comes true
healing, every feeling, that is about to come to you
satisfy my soul, let the day begin
make the evening roll, let the big sky in
satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal

oh this is what my heart needs to feel
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( whoo, to feel)
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( need to feel baby)
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( ooh)

satisfy my soul, let the day begin
make the evening roll, let the big sky in
satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal

oh, this is what my heart needs to feel
oh, this is what my heart needs to feel

satisfy my soul, take away this pain
something has to end,to begin again

satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal
oh healing, every moment, every wish you have comes true
healing, every feeling, that is about to come to you

satisfy my soul, let the day begin
make the evening roll, let the big sky in
satisfy my heart, it's so good to feel
love is all around, and all the hurt will heal

oh this is what my heart needs to feel
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( whoo, to feel)
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( need to feel baby)
oh this is what my heart needs to feel
( ooh)

A Child's Perspective

Try walking around with a child who's going, "Wow, wow! Look at that dirty dog! Look at that burned-down house! Look at that red sky!" And the child points and you look, and you see, and you start going, "Wow! Look at that huge crazy hedge! Look at that teeny little baby! Look at the scary dark cloud!" I think this is how we are supposed to be in the world--present and in awe." ~ Anne Lamott

The Pig of Happiness

I've just discovered Edward Monkton (Giles Andrea) through a Facebook friend. Lovely!!!

Just one sample...

The Pig of Happiness

Anaïs Nin

Anaïs Nin beams me on.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."

“Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions.”

"Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."

"I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman."

"Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death."

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage."

"Anxiety is love's greatest killer. It makes others feel as you might when a drowning man holds on to you. You want to save him, but you know he will strangle you with his panic."

"Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to
replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It
dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of
tarnishings."

"Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together."

The personal, if it is deep enough, becomes universal, mythical, symbolic.

I walk ahead of myself in perpetual expectancy of miracles.

“I have heard the beast pound
in the breath of a bird...
and felt in its feathers the fire.
I have hated with passion
the gathering herd
and the weight of its common desire.
Ah, but no rest for weary terrestrial wings
in beating oppressive air;
they long for the strength
of celestial things
like the essence of myrrh in her hair.”
