Did you know that the title of Nirvana's song "smells like teen spirit" came about through one Mr Kurt Cobain's scent. It is not his actual scent, but indeed, so i hear, was the smell that rubbed off on him one late night whilst intercoursing with a lady friend. She was wearing a brand of deodorant called "teen spirit." When he was sniffed at in the morning, his apothecary uttered "smells like teen spirit."
In the summer, on sunday mornings, I deal with the lawn and trim the hedges, then take the dog for a walk. I will now expect to have an epiphany much like Mr Cobain were someone to utter "smells like fresh growth" or "aroma of a fresh morning."
Much as is the way of life however, I am not a junkee Bipolar guitar player. The reality will kick in when I waver past people on one of these sunday mornings. I will stroll by waftingly and will be stared at from the other side of the road when a group of youths state "That dude stinks of grass."
Mr Lear.
