autumn (Barbara C Manganis):
In remembrance of me
search for truth.
In remembrance of me
always love.
In remembrance of me
don't look above,
but in your heart, in your heart -
look in your heart
for God.

Big Though Belated News for Vietnam Vets
News item from the Los Angeles Times: "NEW YORK -- Do not wear green
clothes in Southeast Asia, warns a consulting firm that advises U.S.
businessmen on foreign protocol. The color is regarded as a sign of
disease."

therese (Therese):
If we seek solace in the prisons of the distant past
Security in human systems we're told will always always last
Emotions are the sail and blind faith is the mast
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting no where fast
If God is dead and an actor plays his part
his words of fear will find their way to a place in your heart
Without the voice of reason every faith is its own curse
Without freedom from the past things can only get worse
..History will teach us nothing
- Sting
Nothing Like the Sun
