And the band just keeps on playing

“When things go wrong as they sometimes will
And the road you travel seems all of hate
But never look down, always look up
It’s always darkest before dawn”

The talking wall

“I see nothing to be gained by any explanation
There are no words that need to be said
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Blues wrapped around my head”

(Bob Dylan in Standing in the doorway)

Dreams on a wall

"And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Between me and my dream.
Rose slowly, slowly,
Dimming,
Hiding,
The light of my dream.
Rose until it touched the sky,
The wall."

(J.M. Langston Hughes in As I grew older)

Some form of hanging

“challenge:
everything in moderation!
everything in moderation!

response:
he who hangs himself
over spiteful remarks:
a real numbskull!”

Lovely Lourdes and some garments

“Bernadette, people are searchin’ for the kind of love that we possess
Some go on searchin’ their whole life through
And never find the love I’ve found in you …”
