More From Louise Berliawsky Nevelson

I'm a work horse. i like to work. i always did. i think that there is such a thing as energy, creation overflowing. and i always felt that i have this great energy and it was bound to sort of burst at the seams, so that my work automatically took its place with a mind like mine. i've never had a day when i didn't want to work. i've never had a day like that. and i knew that a day i took away from the work did not make me too happy. i just feel that i'm in tune with the right vibrations in the universe when i'm in the process of working. ... in my studio i'm as happy as a cow in her stall.
Horse Work Thinking
So often, we blame other people when, really, the problem is right down in here. i'm not happy. i don't know what's wrong. if i just had another job, i could be happy. if i just get married, i would be happy. well if i just wasn't married, i would be happy. well, if i just had some kids, i'll be happy. i'll be happy when these kids finally grow up and get out of here. if i had a bigger house, i would be happy. well, i got a big house. now if i just had a maid to clean, i'd be happy. well, now if i just had a maid i could get along with better, i'd be happy.
Happiness Jobs Growing Up
They took away what should have been my eyes (but i remembered milton's paradise). they took away what should have been my ears, (beethoven came and wiped away my tears) they took away what should have been my tongue, (but i had talked with god when i was young) he would not let them take away my soul, possessing that i still possess the whole.

Morning Cake Tea
We stand there, quiet. my questions all seem wrong: how did you get so old? was it all at once, in a day, or did you peter out bit by bit? when did you stop having parties? did everyone else get old too, or was it just you? are other people still here, hiding in the palm trees or holding their breath underwater? when did you last swim your laps? do your bones hurt? did you know this was coming and hide that you knew, or did it ambush you from behind?

Come away with in the night come away with me and i will sing you a song come away with me on a bus come away where they can't tempt us with there lies i want to walk with you on a cloudy day in fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high so won't you try to come come away with me and we'll kiss on a mountain top come away with me and i'll never stop loving you and i want to wake up with the rain falling on a tin roof while i'm safe there in your arms so all i ask is for you to come away with me in the night come away with me.

When i sit down to write a song, it's a kind of improvisation, but i formalize it a bit to get it into the studio, and when i step up to a microphone, i have a vague idea of what i'm about to do.

A folk song is what's wrong and how to fix it or it could be who's hungry and where their mouth is or who's out of work and where the job is or who's broke and where the money is or who's carrying a gun and where the peace is.
