Okay, It's Official...

2025 officially sucks and is not getting off to a good start at all. Lots of people dying yesterday, including my next door neighbor. Not the one who had a heart attack, the one who moved in three months ago, young man, early 20s, in a rehab program. The young Black man who lived across the driveway from me earlier last year died ten days ago.

I was sitting here reading all the bad news about death and decline when I noticed a lot of activity outside. I knew that a new neighbor, another person altogether, is moving into a separate unit.

Not looking good there, 2025.

Ship of Fools
World Party
Written by: Karl Edmond De Vere Wallinger


We're setting sail
To the place on the map
From which no one has ever returned
Drawn by the promise of the joker and the fool
By the light of the crosses that burn
Drawn by the promise of the women and the lace
And the gold and the cotton and pearls
It's the place where they keep all the darkness you need
You sail away from the light of the world
On this trip, baby

You will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow, yeah
You will pay tomorrow

Save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools, no, no, no
Oh, save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools, no, no, no

I want to run and hide
Right now

Avarice and greed
Are gonna drive you over the endless sea
They will leave you drifting in the shallows
Or drowning in the oceans of history
Traveling the world, you're in search of no good
But I'm sure you'll build your Sodom, like you knew you would
Using all the good people for your galley slaves
As your little boat struggles through the warning waves

But you don't pay
You will pay tomorrow
