My sincere thanks once again to the art patron from Stadskanaal, Netherlands! “ … Yeah, that's when you fall When you fall into a trance A sitting on a sofa playing games of chance With your folded arms and history books you glance Into the eyes of Madame George…” Madame George, from Van’s seminal album, Astral Weeks
