Jamming out to Bruce Springsteen and considering his Mary songs.
1. Thunder Road
Hope whispers: we could leave
2. Mary Queen of Arkansas
Idealization distorts love into myth
3. The River
Reality arrives. Life happens anyway.
4. Mary’s Place
Community becomes the answer when dreams break
Mary doesn’t disappear. She changes form.
The #river doesn’t kill the #dream It #tests whether it can survive #adulthood
There must be more. #songs #love #humanity
