Wrote guts out at geocities:) http://www.geocities.com/asinha_iitk/Index.html Catch my blurties. This is what i started with recently:) http://www.blurty.com/users/arpita (do leave your comments thr) "No, nothing I ever do is good enough. Not beautiful enough, it's not funny enough, it's not deep enough, it's not anything enough. Now, when I see a rose, that's perfect. I mean, that's perfect. I want to look up to God and say, "How the hell did you do that? And why the hell can't I do that?" " : Joe Gideon My love Has told me That he needs me. That's why I take good care of myself Watch out where I'm going and Fear that any drop of rain Might kill me. b.brecht 'Questions from a Worker': Who built the town of Thebes of Seven Gates? The names of kings are written in the books. Was it the kings who dragged the slabs of rock? And Babylon, so many times destroyed, Who built her up again so many times? Young Alexander conquered India. All by himself? Caesar beat the Gauls. Not even a cook to help him with his meals? Philip of Spain wept when his Armada Went down. Did no one else weep? Frederick the Great won the Seven Years War. Who Else was the winner? Bertolt Berch Don Marquis was another god. See his almost perfect state at http://www.bartleby.com/237/4.html Alright: ROCKER's do not take easily to any thing said by pulp people against it: This is not a justification to the Rock cult but a declaration. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of life, liberty, and harmony, it is the organic duty of the young members of that species to mutate, to drop out, to initiate a new social structure, laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its power in such form as seems likely to produce the safety, happiness, and harmony of all sentient beings. Art has a role in setting the goals for the society. Make the common man think beyond his personnel everyday. And let facts be presented before we call Rock such an art. What are the people of the world being governed into? In their greed they have made the manufacture and selling of weapons the basis of their economies. In their impotence they have glorified murder, violence, and unnatural sex in their mass media. In their aging greed they have set up an economic system which favors age over youth. They have in every way attempted to impose robot uniformity and to crush variety, individuality, and independence of thought. In their greed, they have instituted political systems which perpetuate rule by the aging and force youth to choose between plastic conformity and despairing alienation. They never admit a mistake. They unceasingly trumpet the virtue of greed and war. In their advertising and in their manipulation of information they make a fetish out of blatant falsity and pious self-enhancement. They are bores. They hate Beauty. They hate sex. They hate Life. In the voice of various arts, they’ve been warned from time to time to their inequities and blindness. Voices have tried to make them laugh. They even have prophesied in detail the terror they are perpetuating. But they have been deaf to the weeping of the poor, the anguish of the wars and the warnings of their poets. Even to the rocking mockery of the young. And Rock The form of art that attracted youth since its germination and still that attracts youth was the fact that they said what they felt from inside. Not music for comic book Riverdale high but for youth who want to administer there own world with freedom and power. No sugar coated marshmallow sweet stuff. Everything out and clear. This being one of the reasons rapping ‘Eminem’ is so popular these days. I mean saying what you feel in an appealing way is an art. To appreciate it more, around mid 60s it was in a stage of being developed by greats like Beatles. You have to listen to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, one of the earliest albums that establish it as art. The Doors in Light My Fire have made it a song with liberal sexual undertones and has been so beautifully done. Generally just relating rock and roll to pain and angst of artist may suffice to the screwed up heads who like it for the loud music but it’s much more than that. If the head moves with the beat, the music falls easy and rhythm flows into deeper vibrations. Rocker are just the kind that are God-loving, peace-loving, life-loving, fun-loving men and women, appealing to the music for the rectitude of their intentions. They seek gently to evolve on this planet, solemnly publish and declare that we are free and independent, and that we are absolved from all allegiance to all governments and are simply grouping ourselves into tribes of like-minded fellows, we claim full power to live and move on the land, obtain sustenance with our own hands and minds in the style which seems sacred and holy to us, and to do all Acts and Things which independent Freemen and Freewomen may of right do without infringing on the same rights of other species and groups to do their own thing.
