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.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys

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

Finally, someone who’s accomplished less in life than I have. Never thought I’d see it.
I am guessing, that guy is working on a much larger project. If not, Bill above, may be correct in his assessment.
It can be interesting watching the insane entertain themselves.
Fascinating! Until he was blinded by science.
My brother used to play Gene Simmons in the 80s with a butane lighter, does that count for something?
Reminds me. Wife’s making beans…
JWM
ummm… yes.
That was completely different.
(how did he do that?)
Am I the only one that thought it was a pretty cool display?
I vote for cool.
Created by patience and skill, not CGI.
Thinking you are all quite correct.
In less “ enlightened” times, his display would have been deemed witchery. How far we’ve come.
Friend got tix for Kiss concert in early 80’s. Was’nt a fan, but went anyway. Kid in row behind us does the butane blow over our heads. Instant Flame,small bits of crispy burnt hair smell. We lived.
Just saying, anyone who has piloted anything over large bodies of water in the vast darkness of night,has earned the titanium man-card,Mr BillH.
What makes people think of things like this??
Of course, those kinds of people have given us all the modern conveniences and technological marvels we enjoy, but still….
