yeats' song

[Guest guest]

Dear Gen:

 

Ah, a Yeat's fan. I look forward to so much with you and the other members

this year.

 

If we were as we wished to be, the world would wish it were not so...and were

we the way the world most wanted, we'd rue the day it was so...so each of us,

in our own way, must try to accommodate the others we encounter each day...so

that I am not at all like you, and you are not at all like me, but that each

of us is just a little bit like the other rather than just as we imagined

we'd be.

 

Love & Blessings,

 

Zenbob

hi

i'm looking at this blank e-mail form, thinking about how good it is

sometimes to leave as much space as possible-- to listen with big ears

and not even have a "take" on anything. how can i express with words

the song in my heart-- it is it's own last word.

 

aum.

 

the following is a poem by yeats, and i like it, cause it's a song i

know how to hum.

 

 

i love you all

gen

 

A COAT

 

I made my song a coat

Covered with embroideries

Out of old mythologies

>From heel to throat;

But the fools caught it,

Wore it in the world's eyes

As though they'd wrought it.

Song, let them take it,

For there's more enterprise

In walking naked.

-- w.b. yeats
