Tanks at the marble staircase

By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Tank engines growl.
Their long journey is over.
The doors fly open, marble glistens in the evening sun.
But where are the guards? No one is here.
A child on a donkey could conquer this castle.

    “Jeune garcon au cheval” is an early work by Picasso.

     

     

    It centres around a boy leading a horse.

     

     

    Magnificent painting.

     

     

    The image of the child on a donkey conjures up that painting.

     

     

    The Earth is like a child that knows Poems.

    Exactly, the old Teddy Berrs are already fuming at the SPL and the SFA, once the BBC do their bit the huns will eventually realise why the knife is twisting in so many directions.

     

     

    And if not…the bombardment will be so strong they won’t be able to deflect and blame anyone else any longer.

    Goodnight ladies

     

    ladies goodnight

     

    It’s time to say

     

    goodbye, let me tell you, now

     

     

    Goodnight ladies

     

    ladies goodnight

     

    It’s time to say

     

    goodbye

     

     

    Now, all night long

     

    you’ve been drinking your tequilla

     

    But now you’ve sucked

     

    your lemon peel dry, so why not get high, high, high and

     

    Goodnight ladies

     

    ladies goodnight

     

     

    Goodnight ladies

     

    ah, ladies goodnight

     

    It’s time to say

     

    goodbye

     

     

    Goodnight sweet ladies

     

    ah, ladies goodnight

     

    It’s time to say

     

    goodbye, bye-bye

     

     

    Ah, we’ve been together

     

    for the longest time

     

    But now it’s time to get high

     

    come on, let’s get high, high, high

     

    And goodnight ladies

     

    ladies goodnight

     

     

    Oh, I’m still missing my other half

     

    oh, it must be something I did in the past

     

    Don’t it just make you wanna laugh

     

    it’s a lonely Saturday night

     

     

    Oh, nobody calls me on the telephone

     

    I put another record on my stereo

     

    But I’m still singing a song of you

     

    it’s a lonely Saturday night

     

     

    Now, if I was an actor

     

    or a dancer who is glamorous

     

    then, you know, amorous life would soon be mine

     

    But now the tinsel light of star break

     

    is all that’s left to applaud my heart break

     

    and eleven o’clock I watch the network news

     

     

    Oh, woh, woh, something tells me that you’re really gone

     

    you said we could be friends

     

    but that’s not what’s not what I want

     

    Ah, anyway, my TV-dinner’s almost done

     

    it’s a lonely Saturday night

     

    I mean to tell you, it’s a lonely Saturday night

     

    One more word, it’s a lonely Saturday night

    Hi Paul

     

    Just out of the oxygen tent after exhausting myself reading today’s posts. Any more worthwhile news? I’m refreshed and ready to go but you seem to be on strike for the last 10 mins!!!!!! Hee, hee, hee!!!

     

     

    Thanks for the sweat and tears young man.

    Hail Hail Paul and a great choice of clip. Most apt.

     

     

    In fact I occasionally refer to those about to die as The Damned rankers,

     

    except they make Revie, Charlton et al look like a bunch of bungling amateurs by comparison when it comes to cheating and corruption.

     

     

    More power to your elbow Sir Paul.
