Fairy Tales
Fairy Tales.
Fairy tales got it wrong.No one lived happily ever after .No One !
Cinderella got bored , had an affair with the stable boy and ran away , only to be executed after a kingdomwide manhunt.
The prince , who was frustrated with cinderella's peasant-ness, got himself a mistress while plotting to execute cinderella by accusing her of witchcraft , but died a painful death by lead poisoning which was administered to him for the gonorrhoea which he got from his mistress.
Snow White hated the 7 dwarfs(They ogled too much !) , ate a poisoned mushroom and died , and the prince refused to kiss her rotting corpse , got himself a mistress, caught syphilis and died mad as a hatter.
The sleeping beauty died tragically of an overdose.Her body is now buried in The bahamas after a long legal battle.
Two knights claim to have fathered her child and had to duel to death claiming the custody of the child and sleeping beauty's kingdom.
Both knights died of tetanus.
.Peter Pan saw that today's world is filled with the likes of Michael Jackson and Pee-wee Herman and clergy involved in pederasty and other forms of shameful paraphilia.
He grew up !
Childhood was not so innocent anymore.
People expect Fairy Tales to come true to them.
Millions of old Maids are sadly waiting for their Prince Charming to come and sweep them off their feet, while millions of men search in vain for dragons to slay and damsels to rescue.
Let us digress a little...
Every man's life is a fairy tale written by god's fingers -Hans Christian Andersen
Sure Mr.Hans , you'll say so when you have just compiled folk stories from all over the country and published them collectively .Its good advertising , but Mr.Hans , do you believe in it yourself ?
Why would God , to whom we have attributed omniscience and omnipresence and omnipotency spend his time writing fairy tales for each and every person ,porpoise or a protozoa that was born and is to be born into this earth.Is writing our life stories a Big Ego -Trip for God ?
(Oh God forgive me for affronting your all-pervading glory)
Fairy tales are true not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that they can be slain.
G.K.Chesterfield.
Mr.Chesterfield, you are an intellectual behemoth.There is no dispute over this widely held opinion.
But surely , you did not just say that Fairy Tales are true because dragons can be slain , DID YOU ?
One must ponder.
Do dragons exist in the realm of reality ?
Or for that matter do demons or gods cohabit us ? Or are they constructs of our minds , a salve to soothe and smooth away the harsh realities of the world ?
Are hell and heaven the same place ?
Do we have a soul ?
Do Gods die every time they are forgotten ?
And Finally...
Are fairy tales real ?
NO, but they do exist and exert an influence over all of us.
Reality is invisible .
All we are left clutching at are, perceptions, individual and global.

Robbie & PSB - She's madonna
I don't miss you
just who
you used to be
and you don't ring true
so please
stop calling me
Your "I love you"'s
are ten a penny
You're dropping clues
like you've got any
You got to choose
There's been so many ohhhh
I love you baby
but face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
could say that he don't want her
This look of love
says I'm leaving
you're frozen now
I've done the freezing
I'm walking out
Madonna's calling me
She's got to be
obscene to be believed
That's her routine
Not what she means to me
I found myself
by circumstance
across a room
where people dance
And quite by chance
she' danced right next me
I love you baby
but face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
but she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me
Oh, Madonna, Madonna
I want to tell you a secret
We're having drinks
with Kate and Stella
Gwyneth's here
she's brought her fella
But all I wanna do
is take Madonna home
I love you baby
but face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
but she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me

FOOLS GARDEN - LEMON TREE
I'm sitting here in the boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
Put myself into bed
Well, nothing ever happens and I wonder
Isolation is not good for me
Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree
I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
And everything will happen and you wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
And I wonder, wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all that I can see
Is just a yellow lemon-tree
Rock on !
