That is tragic, but that’s life and something she’ll have to live with. But then again, she didn’t even care that he was a kid, but just the fact she had a Dad at all was enough brighten her day.
Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rollin’ high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps
“We’ll meet on edges, soon,” said I
Proud ’neath heated brow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
“Rip down all hate,” I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
Girls’ faces formed the forward path
From phony jealousy
To memorizing politics
Of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Unthought of, though, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
A self-ordained professor’s tongue
Too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty
Is just equality in school
“Equality,” I spoke the word
As if a wedding vow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
In a soldier’s stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I’d become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
My pathway led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now
ah, nice little Bob Dylan song 🙂
What does Millie want?
She wants a Dad to tuck her in at night, tell her stories and give her rides on his shoulders.
In other words, she wants what ANY little girl her age would want.
And it’s so sad that she can’t have it.
That is tragic, but that’s life and something she’ll have to live with. But then again, she didn’t even care that he was a kid, but just the fact she had a Dad at all was enough brighten her day.
If I’m reading the dynamics between Millie’s Mom and Ozy’s Dad right, she’ll get it. Or something like it.
Judging by the state of the guitar, He’s an even worse musician then Millie.
If I remember correctly, it belongs to Ozy. He frequently uses it, or one similar to it, when he’s singing the Blues with Millie.
I think Ozys guitar is less round then that. In fact, lets just call lockes a lute.
Maybe not, when was the last time you saw Millie practice? His guitar looks like it’s been plucked a few times.
