A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees

Ohhhhhhhhh.....

There been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Jaipur, Agra and the Taj Mahal, and Delhi

(I have posted letters about my trip to India in 1991; but I appear not to have written about the last part of the trip, which took me to Jaipur, Agra and back to Delhi. I shall write it now, referring back to my diary. Let’s see how good my memory really is! Although, of course, I could just make it up, with the help of Lonely Planet.)

( Some words and lots of pictures - including the most beautiful building in the world - after the cut... )

Dreams

I’ve not been sleeping well; very disturbed on Friday and Saturday, and then on Sunday and Monday I had some very strange dreams.

These included…

• bowing down before a small black kitten which was climbing a pink wall…
  
• driving a Land Rover into a pool whilst wearing a snorkel…
  
• organising meetings in a hotel canteen…
  
• having a conversation with my friend in New York in which she told me she was pregnant.

Most strange. But then, dreams are.

And I can see where they came from (for instance, the pink wall was probably due to overdosing on photographs of Jaipur).

Mapplethorpe

According to Filmstalker, Eliza Dushku is producing a biographical film about the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe with her brother Nate Dushku taking the lead role.

Which sounds rather interesting.
