walking through the middle of nowhere

-- All political lives, unless they are cut off in midstream at a happy juncture, end in failure, because that is the nature of politics and of human affairs.
Enoch Powell, 1977

-- It was a Greek tragedy.  Nixon was fulfilling his own nature.  Once it started it could not end otherwise.
Henry Kissinger

~~~~~~~~~~ The air is getting hotter
There's a rumbling in the skies
I've been wading through the
high muddy water
With the heat rising in my eyes
Every day your memory
grows dimmer
It doesn't haunt me like it did before
I've been walking through
the middle of nowhere
Trying to get to heaven
before they close the door
