The Rebel Black Dot Exodus 90 Song o' the Day

Alan Powell, "Chasing after the Wind" from The Song Album: Music from the Motion Picture (Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary: For the "Day 91" exercise beginning today, my fraternity is reading the Book of Ecclesiastes.
"What do we mean
If nothing has meaning?
If in the end,
We're chasing after wind?…

"I have everything,
But that don't leave me anything,
I had my plans
Crumble into sand,
Now I understand
I was born a natural man,
Racing to the end
Chasing after wind…

"Why should I be
If nothing has made me?
All that I've done,
The flame I wear, the sun,
Why should I sing
If nothing has meaning?"
