Holidays Confuse Me
Dec. 27th, 2003 05:43 pmI don't know what to do next! I should finish the comic I'm working on and I should do a complete overhaul of the computer system. I'm currently finishing up my MP3 organizing project.
What I think I'll do is record my translation of J'arrive. Before I do that, I need your opinions. I have a lyric that goes:
I am coming, my friend
But I'd be lying if I didn't say
I'd rather chase the river to the sea
See if the port still stands
Stand there once again
In the place where I was me.
QUESTION: Can a port stand? Is the port more associated with the buildings or with the land formation? And if it is the man-made part, do we think more of docks and therefore, again, not a standing structure?
My alternate is to say, "See if the port still sings".
Opinions?
