ginsoakedboy | 05.01.2005 01:14 | Nicoles Dream Nicole, Harry was too busy looking after my ostrich to help you, so I’ve done my best for you. ”last night i had a dream tom waits was playing here, in some little coffee shop or something, and there were lots of tickets left,” - This is the ideal way we would all like to see TW, in a small intimate venue, and loads of tickets . NO rip off prices by touts or ebayers “so i told my dad and asked him to give me a ride and he said i couldnt go at all, and he didnt say why” We often can’t understand why we are not allowed To do things , or why fate dictates that things do not go our way. And of course at 15 you are working through the unfairness of having to do what you are told for no good reason ”i pretended to go to bed but instead went to the garage and took off in his car. i can't drive by the way. so when i got there i couldnt figure out what the brake was, and it was dark and i was blind or something (???)” We often start something that we cannot stop, and cannot see our way out of it or control it. You did not know if it was dark or you were blind. Only hindsight is 20/20 , at the time we often cannot see the obvious. (Of course the Eyeball Kid has 20/ vision. Or /20 vision) “it was really frustrating. so i jumped out and was expecting someone to jump in and stop it”, We would all ,sometimes,like someone to just take over and sort it out ”but instead the car went over a hill and into a lake.” This means that 'Life is a b!tch' ”but i didnt really notice, or care.” This means 'Life is a b!tch but feck it , it’s my life and I’ll feck it up if I want to' “the place where it was at looked like my grandparents house with a movie theater out in front.”.. This means that you subconsciously that think you should eat more peaches. “so there were some old ladies selling tickets, and i could figure out how to tell her i wanted to purchase one. we didnt speak the same language or something. or i forgot how to speak all together” We (that is the fans of Tom Waits) are not understood by everyone. We often can’t get through to people to explain to them the beauty, the pain, the exhilaration of the music, the joy of living in a world slightly apart, with characters painted by Tom’s Salvation Army band from hell entertaining the crowd at a freak show. You worry that you are too young compared to the other old codgers here. “. so all these people were going in and i never got to. and i never got to see Tom.” Again , you are someone apart from the crowd. Even those who also like TW will never know just what his music means to you. You may be afraid that meeting Tom will disappoint you , or be afraid that you will never see him. (and you won’t be able to marry him) “it was quite depressing...” Life’s a b!tch. Buy some shoes and eat more peaches. I hope you find this useful. It is all true, after all , I am a fully qualified plasterer. |
