Obama's battle plan: step carefully amidst craters

Rolling the dancing dice:
only the strong will stay on the floor


******
"One can be at the mercy of the Gods
with whom one dances.

Gambling deeper in the quicksand
And every escape route becomes a trap.
But sometimes there is an exit

if one builds up the strength to take it.
Take it.
"

******
Will Obama be forced to learn
from Clint Eastwood


Now let us brighten up the thought
with some "constants" from Chinese culture






******
And now let us return to Obama --
knowing full well, "this, too, shall pass"

Scarlett Tide

Well I recall his parting words

Must I accept his fate
Or take myself far from this place
I thought I heard a black bell toll
A little bird did sing
Man has no choice
When he wants every thing

We'll rise above the scarlet tide
That trickles down through the mountain
And separates the widow from the bride

Man goes beyond his own decision
Gets caught up in the mechanism
Of swindlers who act like kings

And brokers who break everything
The dark of night was swiftly fading
Close to the dawn of day
Why would I want him just to lose him again

We'll rise above the scarlet tide
That trickles down through the mountain
And separates the widow from the bride
