Count Me In

Invariably our best nights were those when it rained. - Thoreau

let it rain

let it f*****g pour

i don't give a flying s**t any more

i know the way in and out of heaven's pearly door

if it's locked i'll kick it in

you can add that as my final sin

so let the counting begin

because i might not know where i'm going

but i sure as hell know where i've been

Author's Note

"As yesterday and the historical ages are past, as the work of today is present, so some flitting perspectives and demi-experiencesof the life that is in nature are in time veritably future, or rather outside of time, perennial, young, divine, in the wind and rain which never die. - Thoreau

i love the rain .. when caught in it i decided it doesn't pay to run for shelter .. my theory is that by running we are running into more than would just fall on us taking our time ... philosophical, inner pursuits are difficult .. fraught with fears, lusts, recklessness and the desire to hide our selves .. i think it can be very discouraging at times; but rewarding for those who can be brutally honest ... i am a bit fearful at the thought of my kicking in Heaven's door.. i think knocking might get better results ;))))))))

“When you knock, ask to see God – none of the servants.” - Thoreau

great, classic clapton song.

When you have your goal set forth...nothing will stand in your way....not even Heaven.... so let it rain, pour, who gives a damn! you know what you have accomplished in life...this has some bitterness tones to it...like your state of mind is anger...which of course we all have at times.....but here, there is some unmentioned note of despair and the end....or am I getting too morose?
Always excellent Pete!
