Yesterday a big old winter storm blew into town and seemed to hit me on both a physical and emotional level. Today I'm feeling grateful that once again, there's a song that articulates my pain -- written, as they so often are, by Bob Dylan -- and performed hauntingly by Cat Power:
The winter wind
Is blowing so strong
My hands have got
No gloves
Wish to my soul
That I could have
The boy I’m dreaming of
And it's an especially good thing, on these dark, cold nights of the soul (oops, I mean of December) that I've got music to help keep me warm...
