m.youtube/watch?list=PL1F3773166C2AF66A&v=Hv_oOY6Giyw My song for today is REMs Cuyahoga. (This excerpt is from songmeanings/m/songs/view/122664/ December 11): The Cuyahoga is a river that runs through Cleveland Ohio. During the battles with American Indians in the late 1800s the US Cavalry dumped hundreds of bodies in it. Hence the river red line and the Indian imagery. In the 1970s, the city of Cleveland had polluted the river so bad, that at one point it ended up catching on fire. I think that what Michaels saying here is throughout american history, we destroyed the native people and then we went and destroyed their land. Hes saying we ought to fix things while we still have time. Learn from the mistakes of our forefathers etc.) I was telling Teri about this song today and how in our progress we tend to destroy older things to make way for newer ones. We have ravaged our lands and destroyed our people, and we then destroy our history as well. I love St. Augustine because even though it has changed, it isnt hard to imagine people from her past living here. I often wonder, what did they think? What were their thoughts, hopes and ambitions? What were they like? I imagine that we have more in common with them than we think. :)
