out of sight
bigfoot is a concept
dark was the night
reason he is kept
out of sight
knows humans are strange
locks the door
Indians used to roam the range
are almost no more
Moses in a basket
in the reeds
bigfoot does not ask it
has all he needs
the help we would give
there is no doubt
that he would rather live
and do without
ten laws from Sinai
in Moses's hands
Bigfoot's soul can fly
because he understands
try to protect
and love all
and try to respect
above all
A Flash of Beauty dropped a new video yesterday. This blog is big fans of their work. Most of the videos that we provide links for come from those guys. The video is with Thom Cantrall. There are many things that I like about the video. I like the tone of his voice and his demeanor. I like the story about his father having problems doing simple math problems but still being able to order almost the exact amount of lumber and materials to build a house. There are some videos that I kind of dread to see come to an end and this was one of those.
As always we will let you come to your own conclusions about how much of what he says you want to believe or buy into. He mentions Arla Williams and Barb Shupe several times. A lot of what he talks about they also talk about in their interviews and books. There is also a man in Arizona named Chuck Jacobs who tells very similar stories about his experiences with the “forest people.” He states in the interview that his own family laughs at him so he hasn’t told them many of the stories in the interview.
Any time we link a video we usually try to explain that we are not trying to convince any one of the existence of bigfoot. Bigfoot is plenty entertaining and amusing whether you believe he actually exists or not. And really it is probably better for all concerned if he continues to live in the land of myth and legend. Everything seems to be rolling along pretty well under these circumstances. So as long as everyone seems to be happy why mess things up.
If you haven’t figured it out yet this is kind of a goofy blog. And bigfoot is the flag that we fly. If everyone starts believing that he is real. Then we may be forced to get a new flag : )
The video is almost one hour(59:45) long. I usually break the videos up into smaller chunks and try to do some type of exercise when I watch them. I do this for 2 reasons. It keeps me more alert and I don’t feel like I am wasting so much time.
Enjoy the video! You may be able to tell that some of the lines in the poem are inspired from his talk. And honestly the “dark was the night” line is a nod to Blind Willie Johnson and the blues song which now flies thru space on NASA’s Voyager Golden Record.
Here is the link for the video.(59:45)
