I’m leaving on a jet plane
what I did last week;
walked the dog, read book, ate too much pizza, drank too much red wine,
walked the dog, bought an F16...
yup, folks. one for the cv, huh?
to-be-filed under "must-do things before turning 50"
me an' ole mr. perot, y'know...
admittedly not a fully functioning jet fighter.
it has had a rather rude landing recently.
any engineer would tell you this bird's flying days are over,
but I beg to differ;
I like to look at it as an object which has yet to realize its full potential
cocoon about to become butterfly, as it were.
in fact, I like to think of it as an extension of myself (in the nicest possible way),
or as the 'necessary thickening of our skins before the new stages of the metamorphosis'
as the venerable a.s. byatt phrased it.
so, what is an ole pacifist like me doing with an F16, I hear you ask?
trying a more hands-on approach to conflict, perchance?
no such thing, I assure you.
in fact, I'm just doing my bit for world peace.
perhaps not in the most practical or cost-effective way,
but hey...that just wouldn't be me now, would it?
I can say no more at this point, but all will be revealed - correction; un'vealed'
at a point in the not-too-distant future.
and what does this have to do with my upcoming solo album?
absolutely nothing, actually.
unless...hey, wait a minute.
hmm, let's see...
