Somewhere

Aujourd'hui, je laisse la parole à l'oncle Buk, mon ami.
(et un petit peu à Tom Waits aussi)
Soyez gentils avec eux.

The laughing heart

your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.

bukowski.

* Ofelia, oui. Nom de Dieu.

* Zaph, il paraîtrait que je sois effectivement réelle. Tu veux t'en rendre compte par toi-même ?

Waits ET Bukowski !
Est-ce que tu existes vraiment ?
