I am writing my recommendation for the Graduate School (strength – originality; weaknesses – passion for procrastination; how to describe yourself believably as a future academic genius, anyway?), while listening to The Doors .
I like it, but I am not a real fan, and I know almost nothing behind the songs. Why am I writing this? One of the songs, The Crystal Ship eerily reminded me of Drusilla. The melody, the lyrics
THE DOORS - The Crystal Ship
Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss,
another flashing chance at - bliss,
another kiss, an - other kiss.
Days are bright and filled with pain.
Enclose me in your gentle rain,
the time you ran was too in - sane,
we'll meet again, we'll meet again.
Tell me where your freedom lies,
the streets are fields that never die,
deliver me from rea - sons why
you'd rather cry, I'd rather fly.
The crystal ship is being filled,
a thousand girls, a thousand thrills,
a million ways to spend - your time;
when we get back, I'll drop a line.
– brought her image to my mind. Then weird plot bunnies appeared. Dru does have a taste for poets, right? She’s had something of a “flower child” image; Spike mentioned having been at Woodstock; Jim Morrison died young.
They could have known each other. Very closely. In the world where Spike and Dru actually exist.
Now, as I dumped this “brilliant” idea here, I can go back to serious stuff.
Just got my TOEFL score. I needed 5 for writing, I've got 4.5. I hate 30-minutes essays on the silliest topics ever. Will have to do it again. Shit.
