From Finnegan's Wake, James Joyce
A tale told of Shaun or Shem? All Livia's daughter-sons. Dark hawks near us. Night! Night! My ho head halls. I feel as heavy as yonder stone. Tell me of John or Shaun? Who were Shem and Shaun the living sons or daughters of? Night now! Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, elm. Night night. Tehmetale of stem or stone. Beside the rivering waters of, hitherandthithering waters of. Night!

This post has only made me realize that I should arrest any attempt to read Finnegan's Wake. It is written in a language that I cannot decipher.
Anyway, hustle John. Put up some recent works, won't ya?
Focus on the music of this excerpt.
