The Only Day In Existence
The early sun is so pale and shadowy,
I could be looking up at a ghost
in the shape of a window,
a tall, rectangular spirit
looking dow...

 ce54r rated 2 months ago- Fuck yeah! You see the guy in the middle? He's Al Di Meola. That was my first concert ever. I was 15 and went to see him with my guitar teacher. Our jaws dropped to the floor. He was amazing. I still have one of his picks, a Fender Extra Heavy, when they used to make Extra Heavy picks. Good memories!
Paco De Lucia is also a badass (the guy on the left finger-picking), and he also went to Venezuela, unfortunately I couldn't see him. I don't remember why. Anyways, this is my favorite song from them. Both, Al and Paco, played it at their performances.

The Only Day In Existence
The early sun is so pale and shadowy,
I could be looking up at a ghost
in the shape of a window,
a tall, rectangular spirit
looking down at me in bed,
about to demand that I avenge
the murder of my father.
But the morning light is only the first line
in the play of this day--
the only day in existence--
the opening chord of its long song,
or think of what is permeating
the thin bedroom curtains
as the beginning of a lecture
I will listen to until it is dark,
a curious student in a V-neck sweater,
angled into the wooden chair of his life,
ready with notebook and a chewed-up pencil,
quiet as a goldfish in winter,
serious as a compass at sea,
eager to absorb whatever lesson
this damp, overcast Tuesday
has to teach me,
here in the spacious classroom of the world
with its long walls of glass,
its heavy, low-hung ceiling.
