peter gabriel, in your eyes.


i fear that bt's performance last saturday night at cyberfest is now just a memory that is slipping away ...

and i visualize ...

the crowd all around me that night, surrounding me, a thousand people all moving as one, his music enveloping us, soaring, passing through us ...

my god, i can't believe all these people are feeling bt's music all at once ...

him on stage, bathed in red light, orange, green ... the look on his face ... ecstatic, radiating passion and pure emotion ...

random squeals and shouts of delight rise up from the crowd ... i feel delirious ... i look over, someone is laughing gleefully ...

him reveling, basking in the energy from all the joyous faces & moving bodies all focused & feeling his creation ... the expression on his face feeding the crowd more and more ...

the music builds ... the crowd screams ... my eyes are filled with tears ...

it all floods back ... i visualize the emotion, not just the visuals.

and i know, for the first time since the ordeal, since my reality was electric-shocked & my brain re-wired, that this is a memory that will not be lost, will not sink down into the depths of my mind.

omigod.
i can call up that emotional-state on demand.
