Black Cat Theory
goes something
like this... If you
are in need of a
Red Queen.
Don’t ask the
White Knight.
Ask the Black Cat.
He’ll tell you
where IT’s at.
     While Megan and Christine had a cat chat, Mr. D. and me were on the highway through Hell. The Funny Farm was 13 miles from the club. It wasn’t within the walls of the city-state, but it had been relatively untouched by the fighting, Mr. D, had found the spot. He was very attached to the earth there. One of the notable landmarks was an old family grave yard across the street from the driveway. The names on the headstones were slowly dissolving. The newer ones had the names of local streets on them. I believed it had been an ancient burial ground, because settlers often took over this type of real estate and didn’t want to live there. The grave site was on a hill too. The ancient tribes used citadels as  holy places, because of their proximity to God. If you loved Grandpa you wanted him to have a swift journey, you didn’t want him to get lost on his way to see the face of God. The graveyard was haunted by Grateful Dead Heads, There was something different about that lonely hill. We didn’t get many trick-or-treaters, for all the right reasons.

Brave New World
 
I saw you slither through marble halls,
In the crumbling castles of fallen kings.
Everywhere men watched you crawl,
Through labyrinths of pain.
Polished cars, wet bars, antique chairs, spiral stairs.
 
You haunted the homes of desperate men,
In the empty empires of foolish kings,
When foreign wars filled the air with ghosts,
And the unholy machines of men.
Swimming pools, movie stars.
 
Who could it be that controlled them?
What made them turn from their brothers?
Whatever the price they had to pay it.
What was the force that dragged them down?
 
What could it be that controls us?
What made us turn from our brothers?
Whatever the price we shouldn't pay it.
Throw off the force that drags us down.
 
Come away with me
We can leave this all behind?
Will you be with me?
We can make a brave new world.
Come along, don't be scared.
We'll start a life together now.
 
Whatever it is it can't control you,
Not if you give to your brothers.
Whatever the price you have to pay it.
This is the power, we need to be strong.
 
Come away with me,
We can leave this all behind.
Will you be with me?
We can make a brave new world.
Come along, don't be scared.
We'll start a life together.
Be with me now, be with me forever.
 
Come away, be with me, come away.
 
Whatever it is it can't control us,
Not if we live like brothers.
Whatever the price we have to share it.
This is the power that makes us strong.
 
Come away with me.
Leave the pain behind.
Leave the past behind.
Leave the President behind.
