Thanks for the muze...
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I was lucky to have seen him live some years ago, went to the concert with a friend who died in 2010.
Will never forget them.
