zaza said: Dig if u will the picture - of u and I engaged in a kiss. The sweat of your body covers me. Can u picture this, my darling? An ocean of violets engulf our persons. A bird screams. At 1st, I think it's u and u thought it was me. Oh, if only violets could talk. Insecurities. Do u know who u are? Then it doesn't matter who screamed 1st. Did it matter who ate of the apple 1st? The end result was negative. Can u pass me the pepper? Why, because u told me salt was bad 4 me. I thought u liked eggs. I thought u liked me. Well, eggs are the only thing I can make besides a baby. Why do u look at me like that? What are u thinking? I know u better than u think I do. There's this purple suspicion that lurks in the anals of my mind that u and I are alike in more ways than 6. Can u relate? oh yeah? Then what's the difference between a beautiful man and an ugly man with money? Nothing - as far as you're concerned. Do u still want 2 spend the night? Good. Come on. U said u would wash my hair. Shall we go swimming 1st? U can't swim. Wonderful. "I'll teach u 2 swim, I'll teach u 2 try, I'll teach u 2 laugh, but not 2 cry. I'll teach u 2 trust me when u think I lie, I'll teach u 2 love me until we die." It's from a song I wrote. Do u believe that? U do? Well, I lied. I just made it up. Pretty good, huh. It's not nice 2 lie. I think we're on the right track. Shall I wash u 1st or shall u wash me? Prince 4Ever. | |

He does bits of it in the purple rain tour shows, but its like 3 or 4 lines (Syracuse and Miami anyway, they're the only 2 I have) Wish he did more of it, it's one of the most beautiful things i've read | |

I remember trying to read this mess back in the day. It's silly.....he should have just printed the lyrics to the song purple rain. | |

I'm surprised no one has tried to defend prince and say he intended it to say anals (talk about a double entendre!!!!)
but the truth is prince's grasp of the finer points of english are not beyond his high-school (in fact he's forgotten what he learned there!) remember his letter to the boston globe?? Got my mojo working...it just don't work on you!

What I'm wondering...is this from a song? Does Prince habitually write poetry without music? Is it from a draft of a script? Hmmm... Stand at the crossroads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths...(Jeremiah 6:16) www.ancientfaithradio.com
