King Of Pain
There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
There’s a black hat caught in a high tree top
There’s a flag-pole rag and the wind won’t stop
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
There’s a fossil that’s trapped in a high cliff wall
That’s my soul up there
There’s a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
That’s my soul up there
There’s a blue whale beached by a springtime’s ebb
That’s my soul up there
There’s a butterfly trapped in a spider’s web
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
There’s a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There’s a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There’s a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There’s a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
There’s a red fox torn by a huntsman’s pack
There’s a black-winged gull with a broken back
There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
king of pain
king of pain
king of pain
I'll always be king of pain...

The following is the
article written by Ludu (U) Sein Win in yesterday’s issue of
international herald tribune. He is one of the most respectful
journalists in Myanmar. 65-year-old Ludu (U) Sein Win is living on
oxygen supply, and partially paralyzed by a stroke he suffered in
prison.
pushing a box of tea
across a table and feeling a team of tiny virtual imps resisting it
with all their might, but visible only through a little wooden window
-- as in "Kobito Virtual Brownies" by the Tokyo Institute of Technology.
