A DULL POUNDING RAIN

Said you'd never be old enough
Or young enough
Tall enough
Or thin enough

Or smart enough
Or brave enough
Rich enough
Pretty enough

Strong enough
Good enough
Well you were to us
You wanted silence by itself

Just the word
You wanted peace by itself
Just to learn
There were things you couldn't change

You got the dull pounding rain
You got the last car in the long desert train...
(Jason Molina)


Peppino Camassa
1957-2014

                                                   Free of hope
                                                   Free of a past
                                                   Thank you God of Nothing
                                                   I'm free at last
                                                                  (Vic Chesnutt)


I and I alone
ghost of thy ghost
walk I will walk
a burning stem
to illume thy night

blood of my blood
bone of my bone
can but do for you
I and I alone
(Patti Smith)


All the white horses have gone...
and you, My Dear...
