Billy Bragg - Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards (Official Video)
YouTube video by Billy Bragg
Was introduced to this song. Give it a listen. Read the lyrics.
Billy Bragg - Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards
"One leap forward, two leaps back
Will politics get me the sack?
Here comes the future and you can't run from it
If you've got a blacklist I want to be on it."

Prayer for Uninteresting Times
Β
Send me a slow news day,
a quiet, subdued day,
in which nothing much happens of note,
save for the passing of time,
the consumption of wine,
and a re-run of Murder, She Wrote.
Grant me a no news day,
a spare-me-your-views day,
in which nothing much happens at all,
except a few hours together
some regional weather,
a day we can barely recall.
Brian Bilston
This, please.

I want to sincerely thank every single one of my Senate Democratic colleagues who came to the floor, not to just support me, but to share incredibly powerful stories and ask important questions their constituents want answers to.

For a New Beginning by John O'Donohue, Irish poet
(Part 6/6) #poetry #irishpoetry #poem
Awaken your spirit to adventure;
Hold nothing back, learn to find ease in risk;
Soon you will be home in a new rhythm,
For your soul senses the world that awaits you.

Though your destination is not yet clear
You can trust the promise of this opening;
Unfurl yourself into the grace of beginning
That is at one with your life's desire.

(Part 4/6) #poetry #irishpoetry #poem
Then the delight, when your courage kindled,
And out you stepped onto new ground,
Your eyes young again with energy and dream,
A path of plenitude opening before you.
