"The hands of the type-setter, the massage therapist, the gardener, the welder, the seamstress, the baker, the glass blower, the guitarist. I am one of those fearless types and have few superstitions, but, dude, as a pianist, I still won't put my hands near a garbage disposal even if it's powered off at the source. So: his hands spoke. hands that won't age, so beautiful, and Michael Stipe, gentle seer that he is and was, caught the poem of his hands.thank you for sharing. I hope the sharing helps ease any wound. love to you, Courtney." LOS ANGELES - SEP 2: Kurt Cobain, Frances Bean Cobain, Courtney Love at the 10th Annual MTV Video Music Awards at the Universal Ampitheater on September 2, 1993 in Los Angeles, CA "His hands are so ancient and still so young. It's weird to look back at him from middle age versus being a star-struck teenager. The adoration is there but shifted, softer, wiser, edge-less but nevertheless endless," another fan commented. "Those hands carried so much weight and so much power for someone so young. Thank you for sharing this, I know it must be tough to share your grief with so many when so few knew him like you did and so few grieve as deeply as you do."
