choose pride and fear is triangle eyes a temple, leaving tapestries on the wall who are you from one moment to the next? the same? sure?

I’ll make a way through and wind the depth perception into a close taught brick wall, taut and locked kriss kross a loss

is it true is the endless creep of creep true it’s true it’s very disconcerting oh very disconcerting indeed

oh my why would I want to try to fly beyond what away to speak of adult times the world of sadists and miserable people dominating bullies and creeps how to believe

let it be me and the sea and the wash of endless reverb

as good as forgotten dreams a mimicry obscene

remember when you whispered in my ear or was it everyone?

in a place that maybe didn’t exist or did exist for a moment or in a moment outside of time that we relived already a thousand times before living it for the first time and it was easy to laugh it off it was fun to wonder it was fun to wander

meet me in that time and space meet me here now

a perfect take for a perfect song by a perfect musician

translated as blank space the hiding the vulnerable the insecure the wonder there behind everyone behind the cloud

two step dance off plan to glance look away away away away

like, I mean, honestly, oh me oh my, is it dark ice age rampant idiocy we all pay

a little less of this a little less of that a little bit missed a little wit a little

I always planned to never give up this was always the way this was always the way I always said I’d let you know this was always the plan this was always the plan I always pray you’ll let me pray this is always mine this is always mine I never said I’d never read […]

just play the cello in the morning and worry about it later

crumble, pathway, retread, undead, a water flow way, a lowest, a renaissance, a laughter

E through S I like to try and be kind you know? I like all of you, yes even you.

I remember vaguely now playing in bands and orchestras forever forever and the main thing was to not stop especially with a new piece just play all the way. I don’t love what I am in lately, musically, I’m trying to escape a certain gravity, but I’m just going to keep playing. Amen.

the good times, the bad times, the times you find a relic, and bring it back to life

a forge, a table, forgettable on iron triumph, whiling away a stray

in the dance again in their pants again make me prance in the wind and glance at you friend

more to me for feel unsee fabled life winding up

over the landscape over and over again a playing card a bet a wish on another miss me miss me

this year has not gotten off who thinks that’s ok who believes me

I wish I wish upon that same star a young again a young again I punished myself too much for not remembering where oh where oh where did time go
