The lonesome death of Jacobo Luis Fuchs

On this day - seven years ago - my friend Mr. Fuchs was rendered unconscious with drugs then denied food and liquids. Seven days later he died of starvation in a nursing home room - alone - surrounded only by the whirl of machines, cold fluorescent light, and impending death.

And criticize all fears.

Bury the rag most deep in your face

Now is the time for your tears."

"I ain't Gonna Work on Maggie's Farm No More"

Ever had one of those mornings when you wake up and say, "I ain't gonna work on Maggie's Farm no more!" 

This is Richie Havens's version of Bob Dylan's song. I love Mr. Haven's driving 12 string guitar and voice, which he attributes to having all his teeth removed when he was younger.
