Death to Tyrants and Polyps!!!
As Woody Allen might put it,
Death is Mankind's second greatest obsession.
(It's my first)
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89l%C3%A9gie_(Faur%C3%A9)
The Élégie was dedicated by Fauré to Jules Loeb, who died in 1883. Originally for cello and piano, the piece was orchestrated by Fauré in 1890 at the request of conductor Edouard Colonne.
The best version of this somber, serene and beautiful Elegy
I found on YouTube is this one, which does not allow embedding.
Élégie opus 24 (Gabriel Fauré) / Anne Gastinel and Pascal Godart
I dedicate this selection today as "An Elegy for a Polyp".
Death to Tyrants and Polyps!!!
I go in for my "procedure" this morning.
I might not need to poop for a week.
Boy am I hungry.
