Coming and strumming, great images and sounds!
ReplyDeleteJust like the man. :)
DeleteThis is wonderful. He was an interplanetary traveller for certain.
ReplyDeleteTrue! Lovely.
ReplyDeletePerfect!
ReplyDeleteI think it's an amazement that we're even here at all. I had to look up empyreal and can't help thinking it is a quantum physics word expressing the duality of empty and real, like matter, which is mostly empty space.
ReplyDeleteread like a song , rock on!!!
ReplyDeletemuch love...
"nothing in his life
ReplyDeleteBecame him like the leaving it; he died
As one that had been studied in his death"
What a giant among men, until his dying day.
The stars look different today... I have never seen anyone passing like that... and I had played black star the whole weekend... He even made his death a piece of art.
ReplyDeleteHis was an example of art that is truly priceless.

ReplyDeleteLike you say, we miss him but the rain keeps on coming.
ReplyDeleteIt still rains on the just and the unjust even when we aren't.
Who are we, indeed. Who was he. All voyagers, eventually gone while the rain keep strumming. Bowie's a cypher to me, so many perfections in him and yet somehow meaningless. All art. Travel on.
ReplyDeleteThat last stanza sings reality right into the bones...
ReplyDeleteYou express the surprise and kind of shock we all feel when an icon turns out to be flesh. Thanks, Marian. k.
