Here we go, another round of poetry:


Shitty Nights

Sometimes you can have a good day
A great day, even.
You'd have no reason to be blue
Because for once, nothing actually went wrong.
Still, soothing as the tea is on a cold winter's day,
Night falls, and thoughts run free.

You'd have had a perfect day, until your thoughts got in the way.
It's tough.
Why it happens, you wouldn't know;
How it happens, you're none the wiser.
But it still does, and you're stuck with your thoughts.
The thought strikes you. Literally.
Tainting your day, your perfect day, with meaningless doubts and irrational fears.
And just like that, it's ruined.
You never meant it,
You didn't want it,
You certainly didn't plan it.
It just happens.

And then you go to bed, hoping for a better day tomorrow as you always do,
Almost like clockwork.
Hoping, praying even, for a good day
With a better ending.
But for now, you shrug and go to sleep.

It's just one of those shitty nights.

This morning before going to work, I was watching the women's marathon at the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 2025 and something struck me... About aesthetics = the philosophy of sensibility... Sensibility is something that can be clearly recognized but cannot be explained... For example, the idea of ​​beauty certainly exists as a common recognition among people, but it is not possible to clearly explain "Why something that we perceive as beautiful is beautiful?"... This morning, while watching the women's marathon, I felt a certain aesthetic in it.

0072:DAVID LEE ROTH/A LITTLE AIN'T ENOUGH

Released in 1991, this third album was recorded with newly discovered ex-Cacophony guitarist Jason Becker, who had left the band Steve Vai. The rhythm section continues to be the Bissonnette brothers.

With the new talent Jason Becker, Diamond Dave was about to shine even brighter. But, in the middle of recording, Jason was diagnosed with ALS at a very young age. The recording session was completed, but the band was unable to go on tour.

After the release of the album, the band embarked on a world tour, mainly in Europe.
The band members include John Holmes, ex-Lizzy Borden, who replaced Jason. On bass is Todd Jensen, ex-HARDLINE. On drums is Greg Bissonette, who has recorded and toured on three albums.

In terms of chart action, the album only reached #18 in the US, but was well received in Europe, reaching #9 in Norway, #5 in Switzerland, and #1 in Finland.
This album is underrated, but it is an excellent album for DLR to make after their two previous albums. It is certainly less flashy, but more than that, in my opinion, it expresses a different side of him and points in the right direction for mature rock.

Recommend:A LIL' AIN'T ENOUGH, SHOOT IT, LADY LUCK, TELL THE TRUTH, BABY'S ON FIRE, 40 BELOW, IT'S SHOWTIME!

W.H.Audenの“Leap before you look”(「見るまえに跳べ」)という詩を訳してみました。辛抱強く考えることが得意な宵っ張りの人は読んでみてください。


思い切ッてゆきなさい

怖いと思う気持ちは消えてはなりません
道は確かに険しくまた短い
そこから見たらいくらかなだらかにも見えるでしょうが。
少しばかり躊躇しても構いません
しかし
あなたはいずれ思い切ッてゆかねばならない

辛抱強くものを考えられる人間は苦しい夜を過ごすものです
それでどこぞの馬の骨が疑いもなく守るような決まりごとを破ってしまうことになるのです
好んでそうするのではないのです 怖いのです
だから人と違うことをしてしまうのです

忙しない日々の中で苦々しい思いばかりしているあなた
癇癪を起こし 正しいことは全然できず そうして酒を飲む
その生活が少しずつ妙案を生んでゆく
ちょっとばかり自惚せ上がっても構いません
しかし
あなたはいずれ思い切ッてゆかねばならない

人から着るよう催促される装いなどというものは
センスも悪いしまた値も張るものです
群れて生きる気ならそれも良いでしょう
その代わり
人と違う人間を金輪際笑ってくれるな

社会の常識や風習に食ってかかるのは得策とは言い難い
しかし 隣に誰もいなくなったとき
楽しんで生きてゆくのは 寂しさに涙するよりも 
よっぽど勇気の要ることなのです
だれも見てくれちゃいない
しかし
あなたは思い切ッてゆかねばならない

思わずめまいがしてくるほどの
暗い深い孤独というのは じつは
わたしたちの一生を救ってくれるものなのです
わたしはいつだってあなたの味方だ
しかし
あなたは思い切ッてゆかねばならない
安泰な生活なんてものは どこにもありはしないのだから


  Leap before You Look

The sense of danger must not disappear
The way is certainly short and steep
However gradual it looks from here
Look if you like, but you will have to leap

Tough minded men get mushy in their sleep
And break the by-laws any fool can keep;
It is not the convention but the fear
That has a tendency to disappear

The worried efforts of the busy heap
The dirt, the imprecision, and the beer
Produce a few smart wisecracks every year
Laugh if you can, but you will have to leap

The clothes that are considered right to wear
Will not be either sensible or cheap
So long as we consent to live like sheep
And never mention those who disappear

Much can be said for social savoir-faires
But to rejoice when no one else is there
Is even harder than it is to weep
No one is watching, but you have to leap

A solitude ten thousand fantoms deep
Sustains the bed on witch we lie, my dear
Although I love you, you will have to leap
Our dream of safety has to disappear
