"I sat upon the mountain-side and watched A tiny barque that skimmed across the lake, Drifting, like human destiny upon A world of hidden peril; then she sailed From out my ken, and mingled with the blue Of skies unfathomed, while the great round sun Weakened towards the waves."
--A Lute of Jade by Cranmer-Byng, L.
Ok, it' the REAL new year! This is where we say buh-bye to the old and welcome the new.
I am seldom motivated to rise earlier than I need to, but today I NEED to! Today is an historic one and I want to experience it in real time, not re-runs. Today my friends, to paraphrase the lyrics of the great Gil Scott-Heron, "the revolution will be LIVE"...uhm...and televised. Happy NEW new year brothers and sisters and peace and love to all.
