    sad to see this. life. i was asked(poss.over asked) :( for a song to sing on the funeral to my grandfather(Otniel in 2003. so i sing a song with the sister off me and niece together with my grandfathers new friend. we had a plan for harmony but in this setting harmony was so-oo hard. many voice going Gwaaayyyyk Gweeeeek..LALALALA.you know when you can see the nose on your face like it is fucking flaming! so we did it but as every body is so-oo overcome it is not so big a deal. i watch this video 1 time before i go on plane to england and this makes me feel more like life than any other as i feel on that day i was speaking, or singing to my grandfather as i did not have time say bye to him as he dies at the market of his home. after the singing there is of course many dictions to him and i said the prayer to the food, which i have not done in all my fucking life and i am just so dizzy on wine and high from the song, so i quit and say the poem i wanted to sing and i feel better:
    You die so...
    A tree has one outlet.
    A tree has one outlet.
    A tree has one outlet.
    I cannot be awake for what has already died!
    If i lose my branches in the winter, and my cave transmission dies.
    My branches will make the root wires!
    My branches will make root wires!
    This is the banana tree that does not close, who would become a tree whose branches each year are awake.
