Optimist
On a hill
Not far away
Stands a man
Cruciform of stance
Face tipped skyward
With mouth agape
Hopeful eyes closed
Sun blazing down
In this dry-season
Waiting for rain

strengthened by the sense of irony
thank you
Maybe he must do a rain dance:)
love this inc. great imagery for the brain of pod. one day i shall recreate this in a picture. have you heard the nouvelle vague version of 'marian'? i love it! just listened to it 3 times in a row
ooo! an optimist waiting for rain! cool idea!
Floots - Thanks for the visit :)
Etain - I didn't think he'd be so optimistic if he actually tried to influence the outcome...
Pod - at least this one should be fairly easy to create, though my original was slightly longer, had the implication of hime standing there a long time, weather worn clothes and leathery sunned skin...
Have heard that version of marian,
I also really enjoyed 'too drunk to fuck' and 'Friday Night Saturday Morning'...oh and 'I just can't get enough', but have gotten slightly bored of her now...I have them spread out over the month on my work music cds so they're still quite nice when they crop up...
Miss Magic - :) Thankyou
yes she is a bit much all at once, but great none the less. i also like balla legosi's dead and like a forest. i wrote something a little less optimistic but similar to this years and years ago ;0(
cool, you should post it :)
