GAMES AND RULES TO DODGE

Small painted envelope for Nancy Bell Scott, USA
Dedicated to Bob Dylan

Based on some lyrics from the song It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)


QUOTE:

Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their marks
Made everything from toy guns that sparks
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much
Is really sacred.

While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the President of the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked.

An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
It's only people's games that you got to dodge
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it.

BOB DYLAN
