the blind man and the musician
if i could
find
my eyes,
i would
cry for
the musician,
his music
is more
lovelier
than i
deserve
to hear,
forbid
when he
may fall ill,
and can
no longer
play,
for to
not hear
his music,
take my
ears
as well,
i will
need them
no longer.

Metronome
You are my metronome
I’m a beat off and i swim in my head
Your steady rhythm puts me back into
Real that I should pay attention to
You are the dorsal fin you keep me straight
I’m into my own beat just a beat off
Living in my truths that I lie to me
I come back to you you set the rhythm
The rhythm between me and you and then some
Metronome ticks within me now
You set the rhythm I lay it down
Rhythm and rhyme and why r h y
You take me back into myself ...
I’m a beat off and i swim in my head
Your steady rhythm puts me back into
Real that I should pay attention to
You are the dorsal fin you keep me straight
I’m into my own beat just a beat off
Living in my truths that I lie to me
I come back to you you set the rhythm
The rhythm between me and you and then some
Metronome ticks within me now
You set the rhythm I lay it down
Rhythm and rhyme and why r h y
You take me back into myself ...

The Man With The Bass Guitar
Hello there,
Perfect Mr. Stranger
Don't mean to sound corny
But was that you walking in my dreams
Playing on my mind
With tight strings
Deep cords
Sweet symphony
Your aura exudes vitality
You're everything I want in me
Read that again
You are everything
I want in me
The moment we locked eyes
I felt something,
Something smooth
Like the rhythm to my favorite song
Emencely satisfying
Hearing you create those vibrations
With the tip of your fingers
And the biting of your lips ...
Perfect Mr. Stranger
Don't mean to sound corny
But was that you walking in my dreams
Playing on my mind
With tight strings
Deep cords
Sweet symphony
Your aura exudes vitality
You're everything I want in me
Read that again
You are everything
I want in me
The moment we locked eyes
I felt something,
Something smooth
Like the rhythm to my favorite song
Emencely satisfying
Hearing you create those vibrations
With the tip of your fingers
And the biting of your lips ...

First Take
There is something about the first take
It’s raw and there are many mistakes
But it captures the real feelings
You can go back and try to recreate
But there is a soul missing
Go back again money is ticking
We’re booked for 10pm no one shows up but the engineer
What can he do without us, punch his phone as the money rings
Three hours later the bassist shows up, proceeds to throw up his guts
Where’s the drummer and guitarist to turn this house into madness
As the tension grows...
It’s raw and there are many mistakes
But it captures the real feelings
You can go back and try to recreate
But there is a soul missing
Go back again money is ticking
We’re booked for 10pm no one shows up but the engineer
What can he do without us, punch his phone as the money rings
Three hours later the bassist shows up, proceeds to throw up his guts
Where’s the drummer and guitarist to turn this house into madness

Mermaid Self Spells
Morgana and Medusa are two teenage mermaids,
with their beautiful fluffy hair and shiny scales,
venturing into the vast, icy world of Antarctica.
They love taking selfies everywhere they visit;
whether on the edge of a very high iceberg,
in a pile of snow newly formed by the storm
or in front of a colony of curious penguins.
With their small waterproof devices,
they capture every moment of adventures.
Morgana, with her irreverent way,
loves to pose enchanted,
while Medusa, more introspective,
prefers to capture the natural...

10000 Minutes
10000 minutes feel like hours but
My fingers are bleeding
My shoulder is hurting
This is what you have to suffer
To be like one of them
Every chance if I sit down I pick it up
Calluses forming on my finger
Putting in the time I’m feeling it
Even if it hurts my body
I lean on it trying to be a poet
I strum the stupidest shit you could imagine
But I’m in the game and I can’t complain
In the shortest minute I think I found it
All the sudden you sound almost good
But you are not...
My fingers are bleeding
My shoulder is hurting
This is what you have to suffer
To be like one of them
Every chance if I sit down I pick it up
Calluses forming on my finger
Putting in the time I’m feeling it
Even if it hurts my body
I lean on it trying to be a poet
I strum the stupidest shit you could imagine
But I’m in the game and I can’t complain
In the shortest minute I think I found it
All the sudden you sound almost good
But you are not...

King Crimson- In The Wake Of Poseidon
During the US tour in late 1969, King Crimson imploded. Ian McDonald and Michael Giles had too much too soon and would depart to record an eponymous record. Similarly, Greg Lake had met up with Keith Emerson (formerly of The Nice) while on tour and agreed to form a band upon their return to the UK. (Emerson, Lake & Palmer) Robert Fripp & Peter Sinfield were left with the reigns of the band and faced the task of recording the follow-up. (though both Lake & Giles did make contributions to the album with the latter's brother Peter adding bass). In March of 1970 Robert Fripp was asked...

King Crimson- In The Court Of The Crimson King
King Crimson were an English based Progressive Rock band that formed in London in 1968.
The roots of King Crimson start pre-1969 with the light-weight, pop efforts of Giles, Giles & Fripp. After failing to get any gigs what so ever and receiving a dismal response from anyone who heard them, Pete Giles left. Around the end of 1968 Pete's brother Mike and Robert Fripp conceived King Crimson and added Ian McDonald on reeds, Greg Lake on bass and vocals and lyricist Peter Sinfield, who was McDonald's songwriting partner became the bands fifth member. King Crimson was born.

Mining Me
Mining Me
Like a miner
With a pick axe
Pieces of memory
Below is unearthed goods
Feeling for the fault line
Coal car on the rails
Carry away my pain
Leave me with deep pools
Of deep thoughts
Letting the world see
Everything
Sifting and with a pan
Looking for gold
In my head
Can’t put it down fast enough
Coursing through my being
Wake up in the night
Tap a few out on my iPhone
Need something for the people
Builds in my head ...
Like a miner

Looking for gold

Final Four for my Soul
Ball n tunes vs smoke n alcohol (Final Four for my soul)
Epic battle like Tyson vs Ali
Goliath and David
In the garden
Who wins will decide my soul
Rooting for bball but alcohol calls me
Back in to swim and lose myself
Find my way to the surface
Hearing tunes of dolphins
Smell skunk on the horizon
Sink into oblivion
Clear brain can’t find a word
To put together
Spirit’s figure it out
Playin leather and pulling strings
Are things of Buddha beings
...

I Wanna Be A…
I Wanna Be A…
So I’m just a rock star
Trying to get on the stage
Thunder from under the auditorium
Broken string that I play
I’m just getting started don’t tempt me
Sit in the audience and listen
Feel like I can be one of them
I can be almost as good as them
Good enough for me and then some
I can slay a dragon if you let me
I can be your demon if that’s what you want me to be
I can be a friar serving penance for the congregation
All I want to be is a rock star
I know this will not...
So I’m just a rock star

Dragon Train
Dragon Train
Ride the dragon train
Till he tosses you off
Hit a bump thought it was a hiccup
Breathing fire through my veins
Try and put a collar on this dragon
Cinch it tight maybe some boulders will hold me down
Hear a rumble in the distance
Four Horsemen thundering down
Get closer and it’s clearer
Bass drum and guitar
The life of my love
Thought I wouldn’t fit in
But I can’t deny my true passion
An assassin on the court
Love tickling the twine
But my true sport is...
Ride the dragon train
Till he tosses you off
Hit a bump thought it was a hiccup
Breathing fire through my veins
Try and put a collar on this dragon
Cinch it tight maybe some boulders will hold me down
Hear a rumble in the distance
Four Horsemen thundering down
Get closer and it’s clearer
Bass drum and guitar
The life of my love
Thought I wouldn’t fit in
But I can’t deny my true passion
An assassin on the court
Love tickling the twine
But my true sport is...
