Our Man in Europe/now Belize/Dave Delacroix: "The Grande Illusion!"
...ARIBA! ARIBA! C'mon! C'mon! YOU/WE were never meant to be RIGHT... about everything; changing Times, our ever-changing WAYS as we SKIPPED thru Life, always treading on thin ice, day by day, non-cognoscenti...? No more WARS/No more regrets? (Dream-ON!)
That "grande-illusion" in which we slavishly have FAITH, quite oblivious of our Tomorrow's or just what the Weather should bring? DID WE Sherk-off our Destiny or did we - blind-on-blind - put our faith in a scripture, an Icon, some JU-JU DUDE, a Cult-consciously to which - optional? - we should never belong? (Chanting: BOOGALOO-GA-LOO!?) ...LOOS R sometimes necessary? Otherwise, some "Barney Fife"/U.S.A. COP will bust U for peeing in the street!
There's NO Guillotine, nor executioners-block to cement our youthful "raison-d'etre", our Humanitarian/EARTHLY TREASON! And as for - Romeo & Juliet - Love's chaotic GYRO, why should they not bond? A kiss or 2? Love's "transgressions" R our lives IN BLOOM! Nobody goes to HELL having not first had a taste of Heaven?
Ariba! Ariba! C'mon! C'mon! YOU/WE were/R actually ON POINT! Our genetic Achilles-heel. A blind spot! A Solar vision, an in-bred DAZE, a shadow in the Sun, our consciousness, absolute, never, alas to be WON! And in changing Times, a new vintage of wine; leastways U can salute, drink to the follies of YOUTH yet sadly, unable to guide those that follow.
