00:00Right people, back to Grandad's poems now.
00:03This is rather a self-pitying slice of disappointment and doubt.
00:07Don't let me put you off.
00:09The AI wonks have turned it into a half-decent song.
00:12Let's hear it.
00:13Now it is you that only makes it worse
00:21Ordeal by circumstance, that is my curse
00:26Doubt I can take, pretending I believe
00:33Silently screaming nightly
00:38I can no longer know certainty
00:52Now who am I?
00:55A sixties cry revived
00:58Yet tried as parody
01:01I have arrived
01:05At violent resignation
01:09Yet I grieve
01:12Faith which once burned brightly
01:18I can no longer trust
01:25Eternity
01:28Now what say they
01:30Who brought me to this past
01:35Gave me good times
01:38Thereby which seemed no false
01:41As now in retrospect
01:45They do I hear
01:47Sighs of relief
01:50But slightly
01:54I can no longer live
02:01Spiritually
02:14Now there is you
02:16I have to face that pain
02:20For fear I must not want you
02:25That is plain
02:55I have not been there
02:56I pray
02:58Feel it all
03:00That I may go
03:03The right least harmful way
03:07For else are we
03:10A tangled web
03:12Most I believe
03:15I can no longer write
03:20I can no longer write
03:22Poetry
03:23For else are we
03:37You
