This Side of the Blue (5:21)

with a clear reference to post-structural lingustics, Newsom, as I woud fancy, suggests language, words, on either side of life and death, acts as a virus on human essence.
that real human interaction with animate or inanimate life forms may not, (and ought not) be described in words; rather that these experieces be delineated by an amorphous force:
the passing of time.

Much as I love Ys, I never tire of the gorgeous simplicity of Newsom's earlier songs. And the rest of our lives will the moments accrue when the shape of their goneness will flare up anew. When we do what we have to do (re-loo, re-loo) which is all you can do on this side of the blue.
