a murderer's lullaby

western singer spade cooley was a huge success  on the west coast in the late 1940s.

hit records, a TV show, a lovely talented, UNTIL in a jealous drunken rage, he killed her.

for each of us disaster and tragedy are but a mood swing away.

there is more than enough pent up rage in many of us, some of which is justified,  to  go off  at any time.
