Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Wonderful
We saw these at Sea World, and they were my favorite. Graceful and beautiful; amazing how we can see them in the wild this way.
I always thought they should have intercontinental whale races in the winter olympics. Like, from Greenland to Great Britain. Or South America to Africa for the summer olympics. Great Blues only. Small windswept 1 person cabins mounted on top right behind the blow hole for the drivers. With wireless lasso’s wrapped around their nutsax and controlled by the drivers. Other guys are getting ahead?, hit the switch and deliver 220 volts to Blues nethers and watch him do a wheelstand to the lead position. Overhead long distance drones could film everything, and even high speed submersible cameras below the surface capturing that view. Maybe I’d start watching the olympics again like I did when Dorothy wiped the slate back in ’76.
Ghost,
220V. AC or DC? 800V DC with current limit, 300uS pules and 2% duty cycle would safely and humanely allow such a whale race to proceed. I like your idea.
