By Adisack Nhouyvanisvong I hear a voice, from the back of my head. I hear a voice, cry out, it wants something proud. I hear a voice, cry out, it wants something Lao. I hear a voice, cry out, crying out for self. Well come on a little closer, I got something to say. Well come on a little closer, I need to get away. Well come on a little closer, and put down that tome. Well come on a little closer, I need to get home. Enough, enough with G&R and The Dead. Enough, enough of this noise, so very loud. Enough, with just being a face in the crowd. Enough, let~s put these discs back on the shelf. Well I, think I know, what it is I need. Well I, think I know, how I can be pleased. Well I, I wanna take a trip. Well I, I wanna jump ship. You see, I long to be in Vientiane. You see, Vientiane and me, we are as one. You see, I hunger for larb and thirst for nam maak pao. You see, I need and want to be in Lao. ******* Any comments are welcomed, you can email us at ********** ******* LAOLIT@TUDDY.CC.MONASH.EDU.AU **********
