What I Thought


Wanting to post this drawing, but realizing that I didn't have anything to say about it, made me remember a fear I had when I was nine.

At that point in life, everything I heard, read,
watched or just looked at was new (to me anyway),
and I couldn't help but notice that no one my age
was coming up with any of this stuff. I started to
wonder what would happen when the older
generation stepped aside and we took over.

Not wanting to live in a world like that, I
spent four minutes trying to make up a song that
had no melody and didn't rhyme. Four decades
later I still haven't made a new song, but
other people have, so that's okay.

  1. Don,
    I have lots of songs that have no melody and are bereft of quality rhymes! Thanks for the link, mate.

  2. Which reminds me, where can I find a copy of The Camera Lies?
