A Happy Thought - Live

It's a bit of hard won wisdom from the late poet France Right

Assuming this is the last day of my life
Which might mean it is almost the first
I'm struck blind but my blindness sees bright

Prepare for what's known here as Death
Have no fear of that strange word forever
Even I can see there is nothing there
Nothing there to be afraid of
Having already been to forever
I'm unable to recall anything that scared me there or hurts

That's Jim Watson
What frightens me
Apparently and hurt was being born
But I got over that with no hard feelings
Dying, I am aging

It will be the same deal
Long summer maybe
But surely no more shocking or prolonged
It's dark as I recall, then bright, so bright
It's dark as I recall, then bright, so bright

Jim Watson
