Janis Joplin
Does fame really kill some people? I know obscurity does. Woody Allan said he doesn't fear his own death...he just doesn't want to be there when it happens. Have you see the documentary "Festival Train?" (You can get it on Netflix.) Janis Joplin is in it and it was made the same year she died. Strange; watching someone and knowing they only had months to live, and very sad, too.
Most people naturally regret, even get mad at God, when a talent like her dies. Its hard not to feel like that. She would have been 60 something now. However, she's like Dylan sings, Forever Young.
Death is a Woman
In
the face without masks
Death is a woman
In the moment you know yourself
Death is a woman
At the end of all questions
Death is a woman
As the well of all answers
Death is a woman
At the end of all regrets
Death is a woman
In the liberation through tears
Death is a woman
As the relief from battle
Death is a woman
In the loving embrace
Death is a woman
As the end of all pain
Death is a woman
As the return to the source
Death is a woman
In the dreamless sleep
Death is a woman
In the endless peace
Death is a woman
