Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
I pity the country / I pity the state / And the mind of a man / Who thrives on hate / Small are the lives / Of cheats and of liars / Of Bigoted newspress / Fascist town criers / Deception annoys me / Deception destroys me / The Bill of rights throws me / Jails they all know me / Frustrated are churchmen / The saving-of-soul men / The Tinker the tailor / The Colonial governor / They pull and they paw me / They’re seeking to draw me / Away from the roundness of the life /
A friend and co-collaborator just texted me: “It’s the little victories.” Oh my god, so true!
This morning I woke up a touch frantic, not really sure if spring break just ended or is about to start. I’m open to the possibility that winter is over, or maybe it’s Groundhog Day? Was is just St. Patrick’s Day? It seems like I saw ugly people in green roaming the Strand shit-faced weekends back.
Today’s Idelic Hour was cut when The Vinyl District was on break. I listened this morning and it sound pretty good so, if you want it, why not?
I’m gonna make the decision to be happy today. After all, “It’s the little victories.”
