I hope when I die my grandkids don’t make RIP statuses for me on Facebook.
“‘The truth is, Colonel, that there’s no divine spark, bless you. There’s many a man alive no more value than a dead dog. Believe me, when you’ve seen them hang each other…Equality? Christ in Heaven. What I’m fighting for is the right to prove I’m a better man than many. Where have you seen this divine spark in operation, Colonel? Where have you noted this magnificent equality? The Great White Joker in the Sky dooms us all to stupidity or poverty from birth. No two things on earth are equal or have an equal chance, not a leaf nor a tree. There’s many a man worse than me, and some better, but I don’t think race or country matters a damn.What matters is justice. ‘Tis why I’m here. I’l be treated as I deserve, not as my father deserved. I’m Kilrain, and I God damn all gentleman. I don’t know who me father was and I don’t give a damn. There’s only one aristocracy, and that’s right here-’ he tapped his white skull with a thick finger- ‘and you, Colonel laddie, are a member of it and don’t even know it. You are damned good at everything I’ve seen you do, a lovely soldier, an honest man, and you got a good heart on you too, which is rare in clever men. Strange thing, I’m not a clever man meself, but I know it when I run across it. The strange and marvelous thing about you, Colonel darlin’, is that you believe in mankind, even preachers, whereas when you’ve got my great experience of the world you will have learned that good men are rare, much rarer than you think. Ah-’ he raised his hands, smiling- ‘don’t you worry about ministers. The more you kill, the more you do the world a service.’”
— Kilrain, The Killer Angels
Stranger - Dr. Dog
Oh I, I do believe / that there are no more tricks up my sleeve / the good old days have passed / and the good times after that / and slowly I’ve become undone: / a stranger, with a strange heart
And the colored girls go doo do doo, doo do doo, doo do doo
Pitseleh - Elliott Smith
I’m not what’s missing / from your life now / I could never be the puzzle pieces / They say that God makes problems / Just to see what you can stand / Before you do as the Devil pleases / Give up the thing you love / But no one deserves it
I said goodbye to someone that I love / It’s not just me, I tell you it’s the both of us / and it was hard / like coming off the pill that you take to stay happy
“It’s not the years, honey, it’s the mileage.”
Father wears his Sunday best / Mother’s tired she needs a rest / The kids are playing up downstairs
“Easter was good, Lizzie found a dead rabbit’s head in our yard during the egg hunt and proceeded to take pictures of it.”
