Poetry over music

Sampled from bell hooks' all about love: new visions:

"in the song of solomon there is this passage that reads: 'i found him whom my soul loves. i held him and would not let him go.' [here's] to holding on, to knowing again that moment of rapture, of recognition where we can face one another as we really are, stripped of artifice and pretence, naked and not ashamed."

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels.
The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes.
The oneswho see things differently. They're not fond of rules.
And
they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward. And!!!
while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world,
ARE THE ONES WHO DO."

This is a piece by one of my favourite poets, Khalil Gibran

A TEAR & A SMILE

I would not exchange the sorrows of my heart
For the joys of the multitude.
And I would not have the tears that sadness makes
To flow from my every part turn into laughter.

I would that my life remain a tear and a smile.

A tear to purify my heart and give me understanding
Of life's secrets and hidden things.
A smile to draw me nigh to the sons of my kind and
To be a symbol of my glorification of the gods.

A tear to unite me with those of broken heart;
A smile to be a sign of my joy in existence.

I would rather that I died in yearning and longing than that I live Weary and despairing.

I want the hunger for love and beauty to be in the
Depths of my spirit,for I have seen those who are
Satisfied the most wretched of people.
I have heard the sigh of those in yearning and Longing, and it is sweeter than the sweetest melody.

With evening's coming the flower folds her petals
And sleeps, embracingher longing.
At morning's approach she opens her lips to meet
The sun's kiss.

The life of a flower is longing and fulfilment.
A tear and a smile.

The waters of the sea become v***r and rise and come
Together and are a cloud.

And the cloud floats above the hills and valleys
Until it meets the gentle breeze, then falls weeping
To the fields and joins with brooks and rivers to Return to the sea, its home.

The life of clouds is a parting and a meeting.
A tear and a smile.

And so does the spirit become separated from
The greater spirit to move in the world of matter
And pass as a cloud over the mountain of sorrow
And the plains of joy to meet the breeze of death
And return whence it came.

To the ocean of Love and Beauty----to God.
