The Kind of Music I Like

Tomo­rrow will be a day of redemp­tive iso­la­tion. Though no Wal­den Pond, my place pro­vi­des sec­lu­sion when neces­sary. The soli­tude, an iso­la­tion of con­ve­nience crea­ted by the fore­cast of down­pours and floo­ding, will be wel­come. The week has been busy, and this eve­ning I ate something that didn’t quite agree with me.

That’s tomo­rrow. Today is Old School Fri­day. The theme is The Kind Of Music I Like.

I can only explain it this way. I like many types of music, pre­fe­rably good.

Over canapés and cock­tails,
in fashio­na­ble cock­tail attire
after paying ten bucks for valet par­king
it’s about Dar­fur dar­ling
the incon­gruity of this esca­pes some
life is not just
I am not estran­ged from that fact

And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today

PEACE


Someday I’ll Wish Upon a Star on Old School Friday

The OSF theme this week is This Is My “Moti­va­tion”.
Do songs moti­vate? Do they ins­pire? Of course they do. I could list inspirational/motivational songs until this blog burst, and cybers­pace with it. For expe­diency I’ll go with the no-brainer. The num­ber one song on the Song of the Cen­tury List  —  a list I was in
