Long Long Ago (Fado Fado) By Dayne Coyne

Long, long ago And oh so far away I can't remember Did it ever really happen? It must have been far, far away And oh so long ago I can't remember Did I ever really know You at all? Long, long ago And oh so far away I feel like a clouded old man When I think of you these days So now you're far, far away And we were oh so long ago Yes, I must be a young-but-old man And I should leave these memories sleeping Fado Fado From the album An Autumn Albumn

Poetry - The Unhappy Clown By Bronwyn Ellis
	A glance at his reflection before painting on his face, His scarlet smile stretched wide across a pure white, pallid base, The gaudy stripes of colour worn in contrast to his frown, A teardrop in the cornflakes from this poor and saddened clown, A lifetime making others laugh makes humour seem so tragic, The repetitious magic tricks had somewhat lost their magic, Balloons transformed to animals before the children's eyes, Read more...
