Finally A Hero

BUCHAREST, July 12 (RIA Novosti) - A Romanian court has rejected a lawsuit against God filed by a local prisoner serving a 20-year term for murder, a local newspaper said.

Evenimentul Zilei said Mircea Pavel's suit was against "defendant God, resident in Heaven, represented here by the Romanian Orthodox Church."

In late 2005, it was reported that the convict, serving his term in the western Romanian city of Timisoara, blamed God for the troubles in his life and wanted God brought to account for failing to fulfill the commitments He undertook and for taking bribes.

The plaintiff said that when he had been baptized in childhood, he concluded a contract with God that had legal effect - God was supposed to protect him from evil, and insisted that the Romanian church should compensate him for the alleged God-inflicted damage.

"God received different material valuables from me, as well as prayers in exchange for promises of a better life. In reality, this did not happen - I found myself in the devil's hands," the plaintiff said.

The court rejected the prisoner's claims on the grounds that "God is not an object of law and has no residence address."

چیزی بر سرم زده ست که باران نیست
صدفهای زیر خاک
با لبهای دوخته شان
حرفی از مروارید
نخواهند زد.

هرشب
دنیا را دیده ام که پس از عشقبازی اش
مثل مردی سیگار می کشد
و به دخترانی که دوباره فردا فریب اش را خواهند خورد
پشت می کند

چیزی بر سرم زده است که باران نیست

آن بالا خدا هم پرنده ی تنهایی ست
که برای ابرها می خواند

Sorry for the language change but that's the way of the world!

Already

"How sweet is mortal Sovranty!"--think some:
Others--"How blest the Paradise to come!"
Ah, take the Cash in hand and waive the Rest;
Oh, the brave Music of a distant Drum!

Hakim Omar Khayyam (1048 - forever)

Don't you oftenly come to this conclusion that every word and saying that has needed to be said has already been said and discussed throught the history of mankind and what we all trying to explain or spend thousands of minutes on talking about it has already been resolved and what we are doing now is basically trying to get away from this fact?
So please do yourself a favor for god's sake and stop giving speeches and try to create something that maybe in the next century somebody would feel thankful toward you!

For my Day Dreamer

This is only for my beloved friend and companion "Day Dreamer" the great. I am talking to anybody else but my dear guitarist and co-discoverer of songs whom we spent many amazing moments of our lives together and I think i won't be able anytime , anywhere to find such a comrade as he has been and he is to me.
It's right what you are doing .It's right what you have done for your soul , your creativity and your passion of dreaming. You can not imagine how many days and months I thought about you and the way you can release your aesthete part of your character which I know was suffering for such a long time. It wasn't meant for you , for your virgin soul , your never understood high-born attitudes which I have always praised.
Let your soul be free and without any boundaries . Let it fly all over this earthy planet and acknowledge what have you missed or better to say have deprived yourself of.
That natural fragrance of that Latin beauty or that taste of French strawberry or the touch of that Chinese tradition all over your body and then maybe you would understand how your all life-time day dreaming has always been meant for something pure and valuable.
Or nobody knows maybe we meet someday in that exotic dirty cafe over haight and ashbury and celebrate our very own Great Gifts !
