Here I am again. Staring at fear of success. There are forces moving now in a positive direction. All around me is change.
Here are a few thoughts and inspirations.
The first being-what does a person on drugs think about the political election? I wonder myself-deep within-not far away from that myself.
This video enlightens me:

As to where my life is going-I’m not sure-this is another great one from buzzcuts-a very cool new website -this particular cut kind of describes my status quo right now…..

I feel like I am right there-I just need more and more crops to start pressing my own green vinyl,( I could cook it in the oven like a pizza with brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter and OD on weed)-actually that’s not a good train to be on. Right now I kind of don’t like being on anything but still sometimes find it necessary-a double standard type of thing. I am afraid of myself with the edge-that’s the problem. There’s also a need to try and slow down and dumb down so I can try and relate to those surrounding me.
Life goes round in circles sometimes but here I am setting sail for the winter in fairly decent shape. I have changed jobs and am starting to run my book business again. I am praying for snow this winter since that is part of the business I am in now. Change-of all the Change songs this is perhaps the sappiest-80’s YES after they fired Steve Howe and replaced him with a South African that looks like Donnie Osmond with a mullet, sings like Bon Jovi, and plays guitar like Van Halen on Meth for there big commercial breakthrough album 90215. They brought Steve Howe and Bill Bruford back for this tour in 1991 with the Rabin Yes and also dug up the always drunk keyboard wizard in the cape-Rick Wakeman. On this song Howe strums a nylon stringed guitar and Wakeman adds some background muzak-very under utilized….in all his 80’s glory-(he peaked) Trevor Rabin led them to commercial success for which they put away the Dragon motives and got some 80’s tights on. I still like Chris Squire’s bass playing and contra-tenor backing vox on whichever song-no matter how goofy he’s dressed in his knee high boots, tights, cape, whatever. And than there’s Jon Anderson-the Pixie on steroids-look out….wher Rabin is today-I could only guess?
-Anyway-this is my favorite Change song-Bowie’s piano ballad doesn’t have the goofy energy this one does-the 80’s were indeed the lowpoint of Western Civilization that is evidenced well by this post 80’s revival of some good bubblegum….Denver in 1991-I think I was there for this one-in body only…….the 80’s were my twilight zone decade-from about 1987 to 1990-I wish i could remember those years but I know they were fun….
Changes indeed-may the 80’s stay dead and buried for all there glory…..
