One word to the next, one line at a time.

Guy Clark’s Hemingway’s Whiskey really has its way with me. I have always been fascinated as much about Hemingway’s life as I have his writing. I think this song tributes him in such a delicious way. He made his own rules about living life. This brilliant song inspired me to do a minimalist abstract of a whiskey glass.

Oh this song, these lyrics. I have bought this CD thrice. I wish you love and kindness always.

    Lyrics to Mockingbird.

“Devastation at last finally we meet
After all of these years out here on the street
I had a feeling you would make yourself known
You came along just to claim your place on the throne
And I have been overthrown
Overthrown

And I thought if I towed the right lines
But these mockingbirds won’t let me shine

Devastation my door was left open wide
You brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride
I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts
I made a note to myself I nearly forgot
Now I am overwrought
I’m overwrought

And I thought if I towed the right lines
But these mockingbirds won’t let me shine

And I thought if I towed the right lines
But these mockingbirds won’t let me shine

One day this ground will break
And open up for me I hope it will I hope it will

Salutations at last down on my knees
I heard the bugle this morn blast reveille
Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm
All my sails were ablaze I was chained to the helm
And now I am overwhelmed”

I raise my class and say, here’s to you

"the images they sell are illusion and dream."

“the images they sell are illusion and dream.”

This song I hold dear to my heart. I used to listen to it with a friend that I miss every day.
I hope you listen and that it speaks to your heart, as it does mine. The band is from Helskinki Finland. I oft times have an affinity from music from other lands. I also hope the art speaks to you. As always I wish you love and kindness
