Lennon

Conocí a John Lennon desde que yo era un chico. Mis recuerdos son volutas de frenesí, enormes momentos de soledad en que la música y la tragedia en la vida del músico inglés, lentamente influían, se incrustaban para formar la gran masa de materia y locura que soy ahora.

En realidad hay pocos iconos contempóraneos con los que pueda decir que comparto ideas y Lennon es uno de ellos; por ejemplo:

Dios es un concepto por el cual controlamos nuestro dolor, es una mágica imágen, muy de nuestros días. La canción es GOD. Aquí va:

God is a concept,
By which we measure
Our pain.
I'll say it again.
God is a concept,
By which we measure
Our pain.

I don't believe in magic
I don't believe in I-Ching
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in Tarot
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Jesus
I don't believe in Kennedy
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in Mantra
I don't believe in Gita
I don't believe in Yoga
I don't believe in Kings
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles

I just believe in me
Yoko and me
And that's reality.
The dream is over,
What can I say?
The dream is over
Yesterday
I was the dreamweaver,
But now I'm reborn.
I was the walrus,
But now I'm John.
And so dear friends,
You just have to carry on
The dream is over.
