Open letter to Prince in response to lotusflow3r.com
Let me speak let me spit out my bitterness Born of grief and nights without sleep and festering flesh Do you have eyes? Can you see like mankind sees? Why have you soured and curdled me? Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you? That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true? Once I was blessed; I was awaited like the rain Like eyes for the blind, like feet for the lame Kings heard my words, and they sought out my company But now the janitors of Shadowland flick their brooms at me Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you? that you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true? I've lost all taste for life I'm all complaints Tell me why do you starve the faithful? Why do you crucify the saints? And you let the wicked prosper You let their children frisk like deer And my loves are dead or dying, or they don't come near Oh and look who comes to counsel my deep distress Oh, these pompous physicians What carelessnes Oh all this ranting all this wind Filling our ears with trash Breathtaking ignorance adding insult to injury! they come blaming and shaming Evil doer And shattering me This vain man wishes to seem wise A man born of asses Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you? That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true? We don't despise your chastening Already on a bed of sighs and screams And still you torture me with visions You give me terrifying dreams! Better I was carried from the womb straight to the grave I see the diggers waiting, they're leaning on their spades Man is the sire of sorrow Sure as the sparks ascend Where is hope while you're wondering what went wrong? Why give me light and then this dark without a dawn? Evil is sweet in your mouth Hiding under your tongue Show your face! What a long fall from grace Help me understand! What is the reason for your heavy hand? You're stumbling in shadows You have no name now Was it the sins of my youth? What have I done to you? That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true? Oh your guilt must weigh so greatly Everything I dread and everything I fear come true Man is the sire of sorrow Oh you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true The Sire Of Sorrow, Joni Mitchell | |

Dear Prince,
Man, what's wrong? For real, talk to me! Make me understand! Right now, I'm more than ready to call it quits! I've been patient. I've made all the excuses, there were to make. Your ears still work, don't they? You know what you feel and what you don't! The only song out of that whole 3 cd monstrosity, that HAD the potential of restoring you to your rightful place was "Dance 4 Me"! Did you go with it? NOPE! You didn't! I'm done! I'm tired! Waiting for you to get it together, is a waste of my time and energy! I'm through and I'm done! I wish you well and those still holding out hope, I wish them well too, though I don't see a happy ending in their futures. I would not have believed in a million years, it would have come to this but it has and I sick of the nonsense. Those that know how to keep in touch, you're welcome to do so. Those that don't, fuck you, I don't like you anyway! Peace out, y'all! I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Dear Prince:
Thanks for the kick-ass performance on Jay Leno tonight. You looked and sounded great (as always). I'm looking forward to the next two night performances. [Edited 3/25/09 22:14pm] RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

In the end, for all the disappointment you no doubt genuinely feel, Prince is just a music artist, and he's just not that important! Buy a paper, have a read, speak to your friends, family, walk down the street. Hopefully it'll be clear where being a Prince fan sits in the grand scheme of things. | |

First the problems with the Prince-like lyrics. Now people are printing lyrics as fucking hate- poetry.

I do believe that the correct title of the song is "No Refund 4 U". | |

By the way this Joni Mitchel song is about The Old Testament as a theological discussion from The Book of Job, is not about a human beign, nice try! "I have so much love for Prince. But why don't they look at me that way"- MJ | |
