Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
If, as Ben Gazzera asserts in the video below, life is but a dream, where does that leave us, this winter-dark Monday morning?
Is this a message of hope or an harbinger of doom (an expression deriving from the 10th Century), near as I can make out. The etymology includes innkeeper, which surely gots to, allowing for our citation below, be giving off a Anthony Perkins vibe to any of us old enough to have Hitchcock’s movie in our childhood memories.
Well that certainly elevates our early morning/beginning of the workweek discussion.
Here, look at what I found!*
Avaunt! Begonel O demon false! You harbinger of woe!
At random driven, my tortured soul no safe retreat does know.
My mind lacks faith, my heart mistrusts, my soul in pain sinks low.
O woe to him who feels the sting of your deadly smiting blow!“O Evil Spirit!” by Nikoloz Baratashvili (courtesy of our friends at All Poetry)**
* what is there to not like about the internet, am I right?
** ayyiee! you should read the rest of the poem… a bit of a roger, methinks
from the criminally under-appreciated ‘Road House’ (lol)
Leaves me with achy feet, my worldview has me thinking i spend too much time on them!
