  1. tonight wake

    tonight   wake
    when late winter returns
    home your inmate

    in your nightgown
    with your candle kneel
    beside your bed and shiver

    after you go to bed
    after you go to sleep

    when the horizon's become a purse
    that today's early summer's
    returned her sun to

    when the warm breath
    of today's spring's been
    expelled from your chamber into the

    late winter's dawn at dusk

    the cold air seeps into your cell through
    gaps between the casing and the shutter
    between the door frame and the door

    through cracks
    in mortar and masonry he oozes
    in inhaled

    the late winter returns
    home not to warm you out of your bed
    but to freeze you in

  2. Dream Theater's A Change of Seasons - Another World, is a favorite, youtu.be/6krMopB_35I

    Below is the best bit but I urge you to listen to the whole 23 minutes of A change of Seasons :)

    Oh come let us adore him
    Abuse and then ignore him
    No matter what, don't let him be
    Let's feed upon his misery
    Then string him up for all the world to see!

    I'm sick of all you hypocrites holding me at bay
    And I don't need your sympathy to get me through the day
    Seasons change and so can I!
    Hold on Boy, no time to cry
    Untie these strings, I'm climbing down
    I won't let them push me away!

    Oh come let us adore him
    Abuse and then ignore him
    No matter what, don't let him be
    Let's feed upon his misery
    Now it's time for them
    To deal with me!

  3. I hosted many memorable parties in my lifetime, before becoming a confirmed Hermit, but perhaps the best was our 1977 "Disco Wizard of Oz" Party, based on the "Meco Plays 'The Wizard of Oz'" Disco Album. A fine time was had by all! #halloween #wizardofoz #dorothy #glinda #goodwitch #badwitch #munchkins #franklbaum #wizard #thewonderfulwizardofoz #halloweenparty #halloweengathering #samhain #autumnequinox #equinox #changeofseasons #sevenmountains #holiday #holidays #celebrating #celebrate

  4. Finally the weather is changing and we're getting cooler nights and - gasp! - some real rain. Everyone (human, animal, plant, fungi) is relieved that the uncharacteristic dry of the summer seems to be over for now.

    I remember years ago, reading someone's blog and they followed the pagan seasons and they were talking about the Spring equinox being a time of rebirth and renewal, and I said, that's interesting, because here our autumn offers a time to recharge after a hot summer, and she told me no, autumn was a time of preparation for the long winter and not renewal, and this is one of those moments where it reinforced to me that you can't just apply local knowledge globally

    Not your typical jukebox tune. But worth it.
