Lang ago and far a waze

direct from the darkest liquid cyber space


loose lips slink ships
women and chimneys to the lifeboats
man over bored
tastee   freeze
call out the vampires
bring  out the bloodmobile
tell the commissioners
this is real
sweep up the city
collect body parts
you'll never see no one half as pretty
as the jack of hearts

                 Like all of us I am not who I appear to be. Robert Hunter put it well in a lyric “This is all a dream we dreamed one after noon long ago” and when you read this the line will be true. Actually it may well be the truest thing you ever knew, but I can’t say .
                 Like some of us I spend nearly all my time wondering one thing – “Do I exist?”
ALF says, “Of course you do, you are as real as I am”
                    But that’s ALF. He can say anything because of who he is.
                       In the nineteen fifties in Hawthorne New Jersey the phone company did a test. They painted the walls of the factories bring colors. Productivity went up. Then as a control they painted the walls dull colors. Productivity went up. In time they discovered it was not the paint jobs that increased productivity – it was the fact of being measured. Hence the Hawthorne Effect.
                    That is why people who believe in god have a hypothetical advantage. It’s terrible to be lonely but it's worst to be dead.

A “That's lang”
T “What's Lang?”
A “Lang, like “Lang ago and far away” and
“Lang, Lang, hung he neath the branches of the Oak tree.”
T “Oh, so today you're old one eye?"
A “We are nothing if not precise”
“T “It's grim up north”
A “You must know, if at all, how the wind goes”
T “And Went”
A “And Gie”
T “Aye, and Gie”
A “Any old iron?”
T “Any old saw”
A “Iron from stone”
T “And so to war”
