I know no one's going to show me everything
We all come and go unknown
Each so deep and superficial
Between the forceps and the stone
--Joni Mitchell, from Hejira
WJPP here. Sun is streaming through my window's mini-blinds and I have some Joni Mitchell on in the background. Just spinning this out for you to enjoy. It is one of my top ten Joni songs . . . and you know that is not an easy thing for me to narrow down. You will find the lyrics here. Sheer poetry, I tell you.
Hejira: a journey especially when undertaken to escape from a dangerous or undesirable situation (Merriam-Webster).
