Last week we had the “tagged D”-challenge, so this week we’ll create a new turn with “E” – I’m sure you’ll also find a photo, a story or a music title tagged with “E”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “E”!!! Myself I’ll focus on “END”:
END OF THE LINE
I’m glad, that Glenn P., Florida, sometimes joins my guitar tracks and adds his vocals and genuine lyrics! I hope you’ll enjoy that as much as I do!

hi Patti, Elvis drove such a pink Caddy. He had his fat end in his white kind of royal dress, the “King of Rock ‘n Roll”. I think Glenn P. from Florida sings the lyrics with irony on my guitar track. I took the melody from J.J. Cale, my idol as a guitarist, who died last year R.I.P. – sometimes even New York is covered with snow, so that all traffic comes to an end. But this car is only a little replica, bought for my grandsons on a Russian garage market in East Berlin. There, between Russian uniform and military fragments, between old Soviet Union flags and abandoned clothes the American dream had found his early end – I had to free the little Cadillac for ten $ – he rests warm in my bookshelf now – still not rusty in my heart, but with a broken window pane (that was our cat) …

Like that beautiful song, i’m speaking about a passion. Not love but sometimes, it is the end of the line.
LikeLike
dear Iceman,
you wrote in your little essay for example:
“- What happened to the passion? It was amended , decreased or ended up …
– Power struggles in Ukraine, Thailand also show the influence of passion. In a fight for freedom or for just better world , protesters find themselves in extremist side , sometimes racist movements and can also switch to something against which they struggled out.
– Our wounds make us react with passion.
– take the time to do some real break before falling into an unhealthy passion , in politics or elsewhere…”

Frizz reply:
as a German author, with focus on the philosopher Immanuel Kant, I’m always skeptic about enthusiasm. Cool reason was the method Kant tried to support – watching the French revolution with sympathy. But he was not the man to build barricades on the streets. He hoped, that information, words, would be better than swords (or modern: Molotov cocktails). I hope writing is a chance, great enough to support political change. This is written in the times of global internet connection and digital social networks…

Dietmar — Nietzsche had said that often when the underclass is baying for equality, what it really wants is the corrupt power of the master class. I think that’s what happens often after the revolutions, whether in France, USSR, China or even South Africa and India.

equality, at least fairness, seldom found – especially vs. women (in India and Arabia are the worst conditions for women worldwide I believe)

hi Susan Judd,
sorry for the nice romantic framework architecture there, but the town Erfurt (not effort) is now for many of us unforgettable connected with the awful school massacre there, what an Elend! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erfurt_massacre

I do think it is sad that a place becomes forever associated with one incident…

on the other hand, we learned that it was not a pure accident – it seemed the circumstances must have a finish to such a climax: the unfriendly school system, the ignorance of a cold school bureaucracy, the families filled with silence instead of communication, high goals and lower talents, no friends in a community of continuous competitions – etc. so: the houses are cozy and romantic, the life inside often not.

I must make sure I choose a less contentious place next time….

don’t misunderstand me, I’m thankful, that you mentioned Erfurt – it was thought provoking for me.

hello Tish,
I like your passage “the Nobel nominee says he is supposed to be a poet, but that when the poem is going badly, then he is a birdwatcher…” – so I like to see myself as a political author, but when writing is going badly, then I become a guitarist. But when playing guitar is going badly, then I grab my camera, though, when taking pictures is going badly, I start to play with my cat. She’s waiting daily for that point.

“to see these gentle giants in their natural surroundings…” – and not in a zoo (like me):
in the Zoo of my hometown Wuppertal – they once even took a baby elephant into a hanging tram, but the floor broke and the elephant fell down into the river (was saved by a fire brigade – but, hey – that had not been natural surroundings for the baby elephant …)
