Oh! Oh!
'Where's the PR email?' Shut up!
Anything else? Yeah. I have an idea for a new fresh start, inspired by Francis Bacon. It might work. Maybe I'll try it next week. 'What is it, boss?'
Well ... Bacon used to get up early in the morning, paint until midday, and then he would go out around the pubs, clubs and casinos, getting drunk, gambling, and, er ... having homosexual relations, no doubt. 'What?!' Yeah ... I'll leave out the last bit, BUT(!) ... the rest of it sounds good.
And why did Bacon do all of that? Because ... [drum roll] ... LIFE IS MEANINGLESS.
That's why.
YOU(!), you, you ... read the best book about him - The Gilded Gutter Life of Francis Bacon by Daniel Farson.
Also, Farson wrote one of my favourite books when I was a child - Clifton House Mystery. It was a ghost story, and it was also made into a really good TV show.
Obviously, I won't go out and get drunk. And I won't go to a casino. I'll just do nothing. Probably. I don't know.
I'm thinking I could work Monday to Friday, 5.30am to 3.30pm, with no distractions whatsoever. I'll still do a bit of blogging in the evenings on big blogging days, but I'll have the TV on, or a YouTube video, or some music. I'll still strum my guitar, but I'll be relaxing, mostly. Not doing much at all. Unless I want to go out ... around the pubs, clubs, and casinos. Uh. Uh. I just don't know, you know? And it doesn't really matter, does it? Forget I said anything about it, kook(s). That's my advice.
LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT.
Just try and forget. That's what I will be doing later with No. 939.
I WANT TO FORGET.
Remember any of this at your own risk.
LIFE IS MEANINGLESS.
...
Anything else? Music?
Life and Death will be my second best song. It won't be as good as Mighty Soul. That's okay, I suppose.
But we must always do better. Why? Ha, ha, ha! Don't ask me why!
Artists are different. Artists can't be like our Elon. Do you understand? We must let the chaos in before we can make order.
Like Beethoven and Shakespeare or Mozart and Yeats combined I will be writing songs that attract the attention of the cosmos.
Mighty Soul
Life and Death
Nothing
You dig?
And there will be more!
Fragments come to me - gifts! And I turn them into something grand.
Those four guys I've just mentioned ... there's absolutely no way that their souls have been thrown on to a cosmic scrapheap.
But Elon isn't guaranteed anything, I'm afraid.
Think about that.
And think about what you're doing with your life.
Bye.
