"I started out a pacifist.
I believed everyone was good,
only looking for love -
perhaps from me
and I gave love,
platonic love ...
humanitarian love ...
sex love ...
mother love..."
"Love has been frozen into the photo's from
1969.
Look them over.
You recognize me in yourself."
FOR MELANIE, recording star
Please clear up something that has been bothering me. Are you ashamed of your last name? If not, why don't you use it? - B.L., Green Bay, Wis.
I'm not ashamed of it. I just have trouble spelling it! And very few know how to pronounce it. My married name is Schekeryk. When I began to sing, I used my maiden name -- Safka. For some unknown reason, when my first album came out, it carried only my first name. And that's the way it has been ever since.
