[Oe List ...] A new Singing thread

[Susan Fertig via OE]

Can't wait to see it on YouTube. Always loved the original folk song and even more our EI version. Don't trust myself with the tune enough to volunteer.

Remember the Contemplation song?  Here's the deal . . . We get 16 or more (or fewer) of us to video record ourselves singing the song, and then compile it and put it on the ICA Research Channel on YouTube.  Who is in?

CONTEMPLATION

Tune: Those Were the Days




When in the midst of strife

The other strikes my life



And that encounter

Will not let me flee



It's then I honor him

Though he be foe or friend



And I become the

All that is not me.


And in my past I find

The fatefulness of time



But then a transfor-

mation comes to me



I then begin my poem

In mystery alone



And I am Adam

In all History


And the Not-yet I see

Is cut from under me



So fast it comes as

Possibility



Then my reality

Is change externally



And I become the

All of yet to be


And deep within I see

The fact that I just be



And unrepeatably

This one this self



Free passion then I live

My depthless life I give



I find that I be

Being in myself.
