Shine on you crazy diamond (2)

Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
and sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!


- Pink Floyd

Shine on you crazy diamond (1)

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,
you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Treatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter,
you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

The Reader

In ultima vreme, atunci cand trec prin zona Foisorului de Foc - mai precis la intersectia cu Pache Protopopescu - undeva pe un coltz de trotuar, la 2 metrii de nebunia traficului, langa un chiosc cu flori, vad aproape de fiecare data un batran (nu stiu ce varsta are, dar pare trecut de 65 de ani...) citind.
Sta asezat pe o dala smulsa din bordura, cu o carte veche in mana, luminat de panourile publicitare uriase.
Uneori ajung in acel loc seara tarziu, dupa ora 9, cand pulsul nebun al orasului se mai domoleste si imaginea acestui om, imbracat saracacios (la o prima vedere ai zice ca e un om al strazii) dar care e atat de absorbit de ceea ce citeste, pare rupta de realitate.

Aseara mi s-a parut atat de supra-realista imaginea ca mintea mea l-a comparat cu Dumnezeu care citea din Cartea Vietii...

L-O-V-E

L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore can

Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two...

The way I Are

Me + Myself + I = You

Africa calling...

...and when you travel to Africa, I shall be already there - waiting for you

you will find my strength on the elephant's body...you will see my grace on cheetah motion...you will seaze my depths on the falling waters...and my freedom on the eagle flight...
my thurst on the rain drops...and my glory on the dust

and my soul will be like a prayer on the monk's lips...
and i will be lost in the Ocean... like a fish swimming in a school...

when the wind will caress your face at the dawn, you will know that was my kiss on your forehead...
