I am not one of those people who lives life with no regrets. I am honest. I have regrets. There are things I wish I would have done or not done. It’s not something that controls me or gets me down, but they are there. There is one regret that I would like to share with you today. As some of you may or may not know, I am/have been an extremely picky eater. In the past years I have gotten better, especially since I married that wife of mine :laugh_tb:.
It turns out that I am not blocked by China’s firewall. China, as always, welcome to rockstarpoet.ca.
Update: China has now blocked me. Thanks for nothing, China. :flush_tb:
I haven’t posted any music in a couple of days so I thought I would. However, I came up against a wall—what song? Nothing has inspired me lately, thankfully I have an iPod Shuffle that always saves the day. If you watched the video I made last night and you were very attentive you might have caught a slight snide comment about spoken word. It’s not that I hate spoken word and honestly when its done well, it’s amazing. However, I maintain, that music can cover a variety of literary sins and if many of the spoken word poems could not stand alone on the page. So it is always refreshing to me when I find a musician with some solid and interesting lyrics—Franz Ferdidand - The Fallen (you will find the lyrics below & a treat):
