O Francis – (Poem)


The cherries that you bought at the super market

Were almost as sweet as the fleet way that you share a cigarette

In smoky whispers that decay regret

O and never will I never will I cry

From this moment on

There is only a glad song

Deep within my breast

I’ll stay high at last without a feast or fast

Ah, the memory so neatly tied so tidy

Ever in my brain

Balm for every pain

O Francis


Let loose your chances

let’s have wild dances

Out there in the rain

Yes I am again

I am again

For I have nothing more to gain

Tender is the moonlight dappling the morning

As it fades to sunlight

I look at stars which twinly are more bright

O my chief delight


O Francis

let loose your chances

Lets have wild dances

Lift another cup

For there is no faith but up

ia Ra (Poem and Song)

Poem Song –

I’m the paleolithic hunter
Imagination of the sun
And I run
And I run
And I run through the air and the ether and the atmosphere

The flame you become
Tells I am near
Lonesome is a fantasy

Presence is reality

I’m the skipper of duality
The captain of each sacred Sea

Ia Ia I a RA
Ia Ia I a RA
Ia Ia I a Ra

Daily Poem # 4 – Skip Barber Died (Song?)

 

Straight from the tone-deaf arythmic brainhole of the Indie Yard Brigade.


When all the Skip Barbers were gone

There remained just one sad song

When all the Skip Barbers were gone
There was just one ring a ringing song

And it sang and it said

We never remember to fly

We’ll never remember to fly

We’ll always forget

Well ever forget

Every reason Why

When all the Skip Barbers were gone
There was just one ringing old song

It said goodbye
we’ll never remember to fly
or how
o Woah

so i say so i said

whats the difference between living and dead

eh

whats the difference between living and dead

these are the thoughts that a rang in my head

when all the Skip Barbers were gone

as one we all cried

as sad ringing song

all the day long

o how will we remember why

Fractal Poems

Ergonomic

Economic

Very frugal my legerdemain

It’s a magic

That is clicking

Constant warmup

…clock is ticking…

You

Won’t catch up

It’s

The brain

Gotta balance some elixir esoteric as the East

So you pop and so you stumble in the service of the Beast

Deep End – Poem

Related image

 


I take my time deciding

So learn to love eternal wading

Till we are

Floating in the deep end

Sending our starlight far

Patience isn’t indecision

Hey there Frances
Don’t check my vision

Follow my feet there’s dances

You can only learn to listen

You can not learn to do

For everything you hear

It surely will do you

So don’t you over hasten

Don’t burden yourself with more

Because I’m right beside me

Moving cross the checkered floor

Lift the veil of starlight free

Yes free the sun

Let it know that it’s the shaded squares

That have all of the fun

And if she squints sincerely dares

She’ll soon know shades are luminous
Luminosity is shade

They never grow too numerous

Or are subject to relativist blade

For here same is not equivocation
So dearest

Let’s share in the elation
Of an autumns’ pint of rest

In any age, country or station
How I love your rosy breast

But remember I am patient

And so you must as well

For if you make me play the parent

My lips will have but naught to tell

Yes wade on out with into the deep end

But don’t depend

Upon the end

Quasimodo’s Ring – An Ode to Mr. Drake (Original Lyrics and Song)


Another Late Evening Jam…check out Nick Drake if you want to hear some fantastic music by someone who actually took the trouble to practice singing.

Don’t You Know the Ring? (Alternate Title)

Lyrics

The faintest spark
Within the dark
Would hold us fast
And pull us into harbour

A melody is our trusted port
This subtle home
Ancient report
Sound of the depths
Wiser…deeper than the sea

Here we sit and here we sing
A never ending ring
Bells that chime pulled by the rope
The faintest spark called Quasimodo
Oh don’t you know
Don’t say you don’t know
Quasimodo

The faintest spark
Within the dark
Would hold us fast
Pull us into the harbour

Into the harbour harbouring harbouring
A ring ring ring a ring a ring ring
O don’t you know the ring

Again Again (Original Lyrics and Song Demo)


The result of a brief little jam session I was able to squeeze in last night.

I made it on the fly and just now wrote down the lyrics for those who prefer poems to songs.

DAW (i guess it’s a DAW) – Audacity (Effects – compression, equalization, reverb (or echo IDR) )

Instruments – Guitar, Violin, Vocals


Lyrics

All the puzzle pieces are such familiar places

I use them to make traces of my past

And that’s the path I walk on

In repetitious circles

I just go round and round and round

Sometimes I think that

That I have found

 A line that is straight

But I’m still on the ground

I’m still going round

 O Yea

Wait a little while with me

Wait a little while and see

The magic of a symmetry

Of 3 and 6 and 0 degree

 

Is the wine any less fine

Just because you’ve tasted it

Once more

Once more

So come on by and knock on

And knock on my old door

So come on by and let’s sit

Let’s sit on my floor

Let’s pourout all the whiskey

Pour it into dirty cups

Let’s pull out a bit of a bit of something

That we never ever ever grow weary of

All these starry thoughts

Of forever… and above…. and beyond…. and between….

In the light of the trees

And the evenings cool cool cool breeze

I am waiting waiting you are waiting waiting

Why are waiting

Why are we frustrating

When we could

Be turning round as the wheel

And to feel what is real

Is the motion of eternal

Again … again

Miles From October (Super Rough Song Version)


Many of my poems start as little tunes I come up with to a simple chordy background.

On January 12th I dedicated my book The Sketch of Sam Monroe to Terrence McKenna. I had no idea that Dennis McKenna would be on the Joe Rogan Experience today. Which happens to be the day when I finish part one of the book a work spanning months and being some hundred pages in length.

I’ll continue to post on Tuesday and Thursday. The book is free to read on my website http://www.fractaljournal.com Hope you enjoy my barbaric little song (i felt like celebrating with a rough draft release) thanks so much for stopping by.

Miles from October (Poem)

I’m so terribly sober

Bone dry and miles from October

Baking in the southern air

Out here where the summers stare

One by one they are aligned

And their weapons are inclined

In morbid array

Pointing out the end of day

Day eh eh eh away o day

Where the waters no longer run

No prism is painted by the sun

I row – I row

I’m so terribly sober

Bone dry and miles from October

You sow

My sweet fictional tomorrow

You only beg and borrow

Time will show the circles full

As I row past

All Passing

Here there is no guessing

Where

I’m so terribly sober

Bone dry and miles from October

Well
