You probably don't know him... he's a complete artist: singer, painter, philosopher... complete. i love his so much inspiring songs, (yes these are songs, but since it's mainly about the lyrics, i decided to post 'em here), so i wanted to let you know them. ok here's the first one! ---------------------------------- Io Sono (I Am) ---------------------------------- I am. Who am I? The heaven is primordially pure and immutable while the clouds are transitional the common appearances disappear with the running out of all the phenomena Everything is illusory, lacking of substance Everything is vacuity And we're here, again alive, again here from time immemorial Here you don't learn anything, always the same errors Inevitably the same horrors, all along, as always But in an empty room, light blends with space They're one only thing, inseparable Light blends with space in one only thing I am. Who am I? Light blends with space in one only thing, indivisible I am. Who am I? ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ok second one. ------------------------------- La Cura (the cure) very touching for me. ------------------------------- I will protect you from the fears of hypochondrias, from the afflictions that from now on you will encounter on your way, from the unjustices and the deceits of you time, from the failures that by you nature you will normally attract. I will relieve you from pains an from your mood swings from the obsessions of your manias I will surpass gravitational currents, Space and Light to prevent you from aging; and you will heal from every disease Because you are a special being and I will take care of you. I was cruising the fields of Tennessee, who knows how I had gotten there don't you have white flowers for me? Faster than eagles my dreams cross the sea... I will bring you especially silence and patience, we'll travel together on the roads that lead to essence. The scents of love will inebriate our bodies, the dead calm of August won't calm our senses. I'll weave your hair like plots of a song I know the laws of the world, and i'll give them to you I will surpass gravitational currents, Space and Light to prevent you from aging; i will save you from any melancholy Because you're a special being and I will take care of you. I will, I'll take care of you... ------------------- more to come! (if you like 'em!) p.s. man, i love these new onions!
	Omnia enim stolidi magis admirantur amantque, inversis quae sub verbis latitantia cernunt, veraque constituunt quae belle tangere possunt auris et lepido quae sunt fucata sonore. Indeed, the stupid most admire and love all that is scarcely discernible, hidden by abstruse words, and accept as true all things that sweetly caress the ear, and that are masked by a pleasant sound. --Titus Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, circa 80 B.C.--
