L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

"I Gotta Feeling" by The Black Eyed Peas came out in 2009. Feel good times? I'm not feeling it. I live next to a casino where young and old spit in each other's faces. I'm dealing with it. But I've always been a serious person and this song conveys the message "live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse." So inappropriate for Covid 2020.

So I write anti-lyrics:

You got the virus

slim and trim
showing your skin
you sway
to the beat

who got the virus

so nineteen-eighty
so sick with a.i.d.s
so nineteen-twenty
so sick, afraid

as you sway
as you sway
as you sway

who got the virus

slim and trim
showing you skin

have you prayed
have you prayed
that grandma stays well
have you prayed

she won't get the virus

drink in one hand
party as you bop
not afraid of the virus
dance till you drop

slim and trim
showing your skin
you'll look great in the coffin
is that you that's coughin'?

as you sway
as you sway
do you pray
do you pray

you won't catch the virus

too late, too late,
i got the virus
now you got the virus
and your grandma too

Although it's a party song, this is a video with lyrics but without the drinking and partying:

I hate shopping

bra in hand she sighs,
what you looking for?
jockstrap dangling, i
grin, even the score.

Springsteen bulletproofs the cure

         a cento

We couldn't get closer than this
And I ain't got nothing to say
The way we stalk, the way we kiss
I go to bed feeling the same way

This time, baby, I’ll be bulletproof

This gun's for hire
the grooviest thing, the perfect dream
You can't start a fire
Then curl up in the fire and sleep

This time, baby, I’ll be bulletproof

© Kåre Enga [177.208] (2.september.2020)

A cento. Lines snipped and used are in bold:

"Lovecats", The Cure:

We move like cagey tigers
We couldn't get closer than this
The way we walk, the way we talk
The way we stalk, the way we kiss

Then curl up in the fire
And sleep
for awhile
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream

La Roux, "Bulletproof":

This time, baby, I’ll be bulletproof
This time, baby, I’ll be bulletproof

Bruce Springsteen, "Dancing in the Dark":

I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
