Indoor Fireworks

Description



 

   There’s an old saying: "That which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger."  I don’t believe that.  I think the things that try to kill you make you angry and sad.  Strength comes from the good things.  Your family, your friends, the things that make you happy.  Those are the things that will keep you whole, those are the things to hold onto when you’re broken.

—Jax Teller, Sons of Anarchy




We play these parlor games .. we play at make believe
When we get to the part where I say that I'm going to leave
Everybody loves a happy ending .. but we don't even try
We go straight past pretending
To the part where everybody loves to cry

Indoor fireworks ..
Can still burn your fingers
Indoor fireworks ..
They're not so spectacular ..
They don't burn up in the sky
But they can dazzle and delight
Or bring a tear ..
When the smoke gets in your eyes

You were the spice of life .. the Gin in my Vermouth
And though the sparks would fly .. I thought our love was fireproof
Sometimes we'd fight in public, darling, with very little cause
But different kinds of sparks would fly
When we got on our own behind closed doors

It's time to tell the truth .. these things have to be faced
My fuse is burning out .. and all that powder's gone to waste
Don't think for a moment, dear, that we'll ever be through
I'll build a bonfire of my dreams ..
And burn a broken effigy of me and you

Indoor fireworks ..
Can still burn your fingers
Indoor fireworks ..
They're not so spectacular ..
They don't burn up in the sky
But they can dazzle and delight
Or bring a tear ..
When the smoke gets in your eyes

—Elvis Costello






   This bit a' dreamy stuff is for some dear friends who have been wondering whether I've lost it or not.  Something new of someone old: Rianne which is a little Blue .. as well as some other colors.  This one is for you .. and for me too!  I needed to dunk my head in a deep, cool creative pool for a little while and create something completely fresh.


May you be keeping your ass busy this weekend crafting something amazing!

From within warm shadows & deep firelight,


Terry
