Art speak louder than ....?

 

 'Tragedy is dead! Poetry itself died with it! Away, away with you, puny, stunted imitators! Away with you to Hades, and eat your fill of the old masters' crumbs!'

There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief.

Aeschylus

Road to Nowhere

" Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen

And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

I'm feelin' okay this mornin'
And you know
We're on a road to paradise
Here we go, here we go

We're on a ride to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there, take you there

We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride
And it's all right, baby it's all right

And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby it's all right

Would you like to come along?
And you could help me sing this song
And it's all right, baby it's all right

They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby it's all right

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
And it's all right, baby it's all right

And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby it's all right

Would you like to come along?
You could help me sing this song
And it's all right, baby it's all right

They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere"

The Road to Eleusis

Ο μικρός συρραφέας

Σήμερα παρατηρούσα τα βιβλία μου,

Τι φανερώνουν για μένα,

τι θέλω να φανερώνουν.

Παρατηρώντας τα βιβλία μου με έπιασε θλίψη, ντροπή, αμηχανία, δίχως να γνωρίζω γιατί.

Τίτλοι, λέξεις, εξώφυλλα δεν ξέρω τίποτα.

Αποσπασματικές επινοήσεις και ευφυολογήματα.

Στοιβαγμένες γνώσεις, δίχως αυθεντία αλλά με επίγνωση ματαιότητας.

Συρραφέας φαντασιώσεων σε περιτύλιγμα δυσνόητης σοφίας,

Οι εμπειρίες μου με κάνουν περήφανο, κυρίως οι στιγμές ειλικρίνειας.

Τα βιβλία μου με κάνουν να κοκκινίζω από ντροπή, γιατί μου θυμίζουν τι σκεφτόμουν όταν τα αγόρασα,

Κυρίως γιατί μου θυμίζουν ποιους σκεφτόμουν όταν τα αγόραζα.

Είμαι συρραφέας στιγμών ειλικρίνειας και συναισθημάτων.

Σας ευχαριστώ.

Είμαι ψεύτης.

Eleutheromania !

I have news for you my dear,
You won't be the great author you thought you'd be.

You won't even be very successful businessman,
You will be a mediocre father,
A mediocre lover.

Remember the dreams for a house in the countryside with a pool,
Nope, that will not happen.

Most of those post-psychotic illusions will not be fulfilled.

Actually all those thoughts about respect, recognition and social climbing,
all those are lost,
you missed them.

This is the news that I have for you.

You should celebrate this news my friend.
This is amazing news.
You should be thankful to me.

I'm very happy to deliver such cynical & lyrical news to people.

I'm the messenger of hope.

And that gives me also a hope.
That way I feel a little bit better about myself.
It gives me a reason to exist.

I love bringing the news to people.
Especially this kind of news.

Freedom my friend...

Join me in questioning your freedom.
Join me in questioning all definitions of success.

And this is great news.

Smile!
You are not on candid camera.
Not anymore.
Do you see any familiarity?
