EPILOGUE ; THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

It is true of the good man too that he does many acts for the sake of his friends and his country, and if necessary dies for them; for he will throw away both wealth and honours and in general the goods that are objects of competition, gaining for himself nobility;since he would prefer a short period of intense pleasure to a long one of mild enjoyment, a twelvemonth of noble life to many years of humdrum existence, and one great and noble action to many trivial ones.

BUNNY IS STREET, FOR COCAINE AS WELL AS A RABBIT.

 IF YOU VIEW MUSICAL MEMORY, AS A 'FORM'..AND USE METAPHOR/STREET SLANG,
AS AN 'INTERPRETATION' METHOD..THEN MEANINGS CAN BECOME CLEAR.
PINK FLOYD'S,LYRICS,IN 'BREATHE',FROM THE ALBUM,'DARK SIDE OF THE MOON',
FOR EXAMPLE CAN BE SEEN AS MYTHOLOGICAL.

Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don't be afraid to care.
Leave but don't leave me.
Look around and choose your own ground.

Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.

Run, rabbit run.
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.

For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave.
 

OR,PSYCHOLOGICAL, I,E, EARLY GRAVE, ETC=DEPRESSION.

RICE BURROUGHS, AUTHOR, OF, 'TARZAN',GREYSTOKE, ETC..
WAS, INTERESTED, IN THE MOON, AND..THE, 'JUNGLE'..
Edgar Rice Burroughs' father was a Freemason. There is likely an autobiographical touch to the words the author puts into the mouth of his fictional character, James Blake: "my father is a thirty second degree Mason and a Knight Templar." Faithful practitioners of "The Craft" are under a nominal obligation to raise their children according the moral guidance of the "Great Architect of the Universe." 

SO ITS HARDLY SURPRISING THAT 'LUNA' INFLUENCED HIS CREATIVITY..

THE 'JUNGLE'[SELVA] IS  METAPHOR, FOR PRIMITIVE, UNDIFFERENTIATED,
PSYCHIC 'CONTENT'.
