"Everything we are taught is false"

..... and most things we learn are suspect....


King Of Bohemia

Let me rock you in my arms
I'll hold you safe and small
A refugee from the Seraphim

In your rich girl rags and all
Did your dreams die young
Were they too hard won
Did you reach too high and fall
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all

Your eyes seem from a different face
They've seen that much that soon
Your cheek too cold, too pale to shine
Like an old and waning moon

And there is no peace
No true release
No secret place to crawl
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all

If tears unshed could heal your heart
If words unsaid could sway
Then watch you melt into the night
With Adieu, and rue the day

Did your dreams die young
Were they too hard won
Did you reach too high and fall
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all

Everything we are taught is false... So supply and demand have nothing to do one with the other? Damn, no wonder I'm so confused.

Did you reach too high and fall

yes, but only to a lower branch and not all the way to ground.

Yes, many melted yesterdays, and soon to be melted tomorrows and some melted todays. But inbetween the melted moments, there are those ephemeral and much appreciated moments of beauty.

...but it seems that all I demand is out of supply.

yuppers...they were out when I needed them. That is why I have no faith in a supply-sided economy. Bisquits.
