The writer stares with glassy eyes —
Defies the empty page,
His beard is white, his face is lined
And streaked with tears of rage.
Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision,
But now his mind is dark and dulled
By sickness and indecision
And he stares out the kitchen door
Where the sun will rise no more…
Once upon a time
Once when you were mine
I remember skies
Reflected in your eyes
I wonder where you are
I wonder if you think about me
Once upon a time
In your wildest dreams
I'm burnin' through the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you
And it was morning.
And I found myself mourning,
for a childhood that I thought had disappeared.
I looked out the window,
And I saw a magpie in the rainbow, the rain had gone
I'm not alone, I turned to the mirror,
I saw you, the child, that once loved.
Girl, don't go away mad
Girl, just go away
Girl, don't go away mad
Now girl, just go away, (here it go)
Don't go away mad
I don't want you mad
Come on girl
Come on baby
Played a mother on a network "not a sitcom" tv show based on a book. Don't know the actress's name, but is this the mom from Little House on the Prairie?
Looks like some TED Talk type who preaches happiness and fulfillment by listening to your inner child...
...or perhaps a "celebrity spokesperson" for the Medicare Coverage Hotline
Wish I read this before my wife and i watched it to other night. Almost as bad as the other Melissa McCarthy movie from earlier this year, Super Intelligence. Gotta stop watching Melissa McCarthy movies.
To add some recommendations to this list:
- Letterkenny (Hulu) - life in a VERY small Canadian town...it's the hicks vs. the skids vs. the hockey players. It has a unique cadence to it, so give it a few episodes
- Mr. Mercedes (Peacock) - based on Stephen King book(s). Brendan Gleeson is stellar in this
- The Nevers (HBO Max) - Just watched the first episode but really intriguing premise and am interested in seeing where this goes
- The Boys (Amazon Prime) - I know it has been discussed in this thread, but the whale scene in season 2 alone is worth the price of admission. If you are easily offended (especially by the use of the C word), stay away.
'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one
I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath
Before I start off again
Driven on
Without a moment to spend
To pass an evening
With a drink and a friend
All this time we’re burning like bonfires in the dark
A billion other blazes are shooting off their sparks
Every spark a drifting ember of desire
To fall upon the earth and spark another fire
A homeward angel on the fly
A wave toward the clearing sky
