On jealousy and discovering Kate Bush
Whenever you're tempted to envy the young, hang out outside a high school or junior high at dismissal time. t will also come back to you: the insecurity, awkwardness, pimples, etc.
Or try this poem:
Youth is a silly, vapid state;
Old age with fears and ills is rife;
This simple boon I beg of fate:
A thousand years of Middle Life!
CAROLYN WELLS
I'm envious/jealous of your knowledge of music, Michael, and the depth it's given your life. Your passion is beautifully expressed in this piece.
