Songs of Loss

Loss is what the living think of the dead. We sing about it, think about it, talk about it. I wonder what the dead think of the living?? Do their souls interact with each other in a discourse on the living?? For them the living are not lost but are perhaps gained in new and profound ways they never could have known while they were alive as the barriers are too great between the souls of the living. Anyway.....this is an amazing song. For me its about those we have lost who are dead but also those who are still alive but dead for us anyway.

A word is worth a thousand pictures. Thought devoid of feeling is meaningless. Feeling devoid of thought is fleeting. Thought united with feeling is profound and timeless. What is needed in our People in these days is at once fire and fog. The fire to face the test and the fog to recover from and soothe the pain of its aftermath.
