When Star Wars came to film in Ireland (in County Kerry the Blasket islands) I wanted a part I wanted to be like Darth (Vader) I told them I knew the whole Star Wars Universe off by heart From Ken Kenobi's desert hideout to Hans Solo's Big Bird, the Maltese Falcon And the big chewy chap Wuzzy Bear And the lovely Princess Leah with her lovely bunned up hair I told them I could be Bard the wise old Shaman poet At least I'd be better than that old **** Yoda Well they looked at me a bit awry I thought to myself "I got a bad feeling about this" They turned me down, said maybe another time   I warned them "I might turn to the Dark Side" I would have reached for a Blaster only I was already fairly plastered They started to bundle me out the door I was strugglin' and shouting "Yea Yoda Old Toadface Get your hands off me, I'm talkin' Toad here man.... I'm talkin' Toad..."

When Star Wars came to Ireland
Everything you've heard about me is true. - Apart from that thing with L3. We were just friends. Honest.

Is it true?
Она што твојот глас го прави толку рамен толку тенок и како од плех тоа е стравот дека ќе кажеш нешто погрешно или секогаш истото или она што секој го кажува или нешто неважно или беспомошно или нешто што би можело погрешно да се разбере или што би можело да им се допадне на погрешни или нешто глупо или нешто толку очигледно нешто застарено Зарем не ти здосади од чист страв од чист страв пред стравот дека ќе кажеш нешто погрешно секогаш да ја кажуваш погрешната работа?

Несоодветното да се прецрта - Ханс Магнус Енценсбергер
in the tumbles of ice and snow a small spark of a crystal did grow i sprang out borne, not still into a world of ice and chill i loved the ice, the tumbling start of snowflakes that cascaded through the dark for what could hold me with such care as the snow and ice that kissed my hair? i held my heart in a hardened vice of a sweetly spun smoldering ice but i grew older that layer of solder quickly cracked over my heart pounded newly awaken in a wild flutter, i had forsaken the quiet isolation of ice and snow for a life i didn't know i longed for years for a frosty companion to lead me through the wild abandon that people once called love i crept, i crawled, i spit and spied i let the hope shroud me with lies and then one day in Holland dear i cast about, i found the boy playing with his small wooden toy one look at him and i knew it was true this boy longed to feel the cold too all at once so far and so near all at once my path was clear his name was Kay and at the break of day i shattered the mirror and left a shard of my love clearer slipped into his heart and eye but there was a girl, a wretched thing who in winter still smelled of summer and spring she had my king by the throat a sappy pestilence that would revoke my claim to my sweet one Kay and ruin my chance for love, that wicked fae so i came to  him on a day i loved best and when he came close i clutched him to my chest for now he saw the beauty seared into my face, so ruthless and dear i cried pure flakes as we pulled away to my joy there was no delay for he was on the brink of manhood a sweet young thing that would soon leave the stage in which he stood and grow to love me safe and sound in my castle where he would never frown and would tumble happily among the drifts and cold down but i'd forgotten the girl, the awful thing who claimed love for  my soon to be king like the sun in autumn loves the far away spring in my carelessness i left her to sing a song of melancholy with a bitter ring i took my love far away to the brink of my frozen quay and then i first saw him smile he kissed my cheek and asked to stay awhile years passed and he grew i was mother, friend, then lover true he was pure and sweet and warm by me Kay would never come to harm a man who loved the cold and snow and the woman whom held it, all aglow he led my frozen heart to love but the girl crept up and tried to sway the heart of my beloved Kay she begged she pleaded, she did whispered and shout but of my palace dear Kay wouldn't come out he protested, told her a story of a beautiful ice queen and a love of glory but the girl did twisted and pout she pleaded for my love to cast on me his doubt i lied, she cried i'd stolen Kay, so he should cast me aside i told him once as i felt my heart crack that if he left he could never come back the ice and snow would be strangers forevermore if he walked through that door he smiled his brilliant way and said he would never live to see that day but as he turned to shout out go home a single tear that that ***** had thrown landed in his glass shard eye and with a sigh he followed through the night the sound of sun and cruel warmth and harsh light i was dead, abandoned choked as though my dearest had cut my throat she melted away the sight of beauty he once held dear and his eyes for once weren't clear the ice and snow now held no power and he slipped farther away with every hour until she made him forget all about me i pledged  i would never have another and until death came forever my lover i would never remind him of the loss of the world she made him toss so years went by and with every day he breathed and sighed laced with crystal goodbyes she couldn't melt the ice in his heart and in my frozen palace there were starts when ever he thought of a life that he quite remember but ten years later in late December a young man stood in the snowy weather calling out my name in a way so tender the cold and snow wrapped him in its arms and bore him away to my broken form he kissed me once his lips still cold and the ice queen learned what it was to truly hold a willing heart and love, fully thawed and smoldering i will love this man, my Kay until the world starts over and makes our hearts say that a deathless death will be the right way but until then we dance away the days in immortal youth with no decay for it was a snowy world with just an ice queen and a molten man smitten with the cold serene.
