‘Daily Poem’ # 2 – Keeper Ambrosia

Image result for tiffany lamp beer

There’s not much company here

How odd it is then to be in such good company

Solipsism? Hardly dear…

Rapping fingers on dark oak beneath tiffany

In the light of that peculiar slight dyspepsia

A sinking ballast

Keeper ambrosia

Hold fast

Thumos is spirit

So spirits today!

Can you still hear it?

Keeper ambrosia won’t send us away!

‘Daily’ Poem # 1

Image result for antique metronome

Discipline

The name that rings so sweetly in the mind

The heart’s a trampoline

It jumps to leave that word behind

Yet the tonic it repeats

Enticing with fresh mornings

Even after all of our retreats

Heavy are all wisdom’s warnings

Yet not as mighty as her feats

So do not tarry and do not harri

Become simply  ordinary

As the meter

Cause with each beat you’ll become extra

Victory wine will flow by litre

Ah the music yet to break

Hurry now towards the sweet refrain

There is much love to make

Gaining strength again you will again

Daily Poem 3 – Alchemist’s Lament

Image result for alchemist


They want magic to come from  unknown places

As soon as the source is revealed

There’s a frown on their faces

Why! They collectively squealed.

I could have done that!

There’s no wonder

For I too have a rabbit and hat

Which leaves all us dancers annoyed

Is this philosophy that hard to know

That what God has most thorough enjoyed

Is that creatures of mud from mud gold can grow

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

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 (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

Apollo’s Grunge (Poem)

Apollo's Grunge


Any old paper will do

A scribble or typeface is equally true

As a nod unto firmament

Or some bittersweet heart’s lament

To write is to sing

To speak is to breathe

Giving souls a wing

And nerves reprieve

How cheap is the pleasure

Of such a great treasure

A pen and a paper you pulled from the refuse

Gift worthy of the most beautiful muse

Winter Drizzle (Poem)

rain-874041_1280


Drops against my window

On a Wednesday Afternoon

All came in a neat row

Neither slow nor soon

As I lay dreaming

My limbs drank in their soothing sound

Carrying a meaning

Of times and spaces more profound

For all is water

All was always so

Since Eve’s first daughter

Watched its ebb and flow

There is motion

There is meaning

In the ocean

Of my dreaming

As the patter on the window

Does with every moment grow

Like the trees that lined the garden

Long ago

There is only memory and pardon

In the winter drizzle

I now know

Hanging with Cecilia – Moody Piano Impromptu and Poem


There’s a wee spider beneath my keyboard…

20180203_124238

so I’m…

Hanging With Cecilia…

Lady Cecilia Meenor Spider spun her silken web

Lady Cecilia Meenor Spider controlled the flow and ebb

Of the weird ocean known as time

Even though lady Cecilia Meenor Spider was no greater than a Dime

Running up and down and back and forth

Up to the south

and down to the north

For gravity, she had nothing but derision

For all her, goings were her own decision

Lady Cecilia Meenor Spider

This masterful seamstress

Was a divine glider

Keeping the magic staying distress

Though the fly’s plight might seem tragic

When caught in her net

His permutation for her satiation

Is a communion without regret

Drunk on her poison feeling no pain

The six-legged flyer releases his soul but not in vain

For Cecilia spider has sent him on home

Where he’s a light beneath a magnificent dome

Thus is the keeping of time and its half

So darling don’t fear

For death is a laugh

Transmission (Poem)

Related image


It turns you

Into city visions

Your eyes become

Kaleidoscopes

Of other peoples

Dreams

Daze-ed is the walk of those

Among the walls that talk

They cannot separate

The lead out from the chorus

Thus feeding on frustrate

That ether

They are static things

Electric buzzing

In the maelstrom

Of soft white lies

And forgotten histories

What use have we for arcane

Magic

Or for symmetry

Such things are daft and tragic

Leave us be

There is no need of learning

Save to secure

The turning of a gear

That will assure

Tomorrow

They don’t know why

And do not sorrow

That tomorrow

Is today

Transmission

The transmission

It’s a mission to deliver

Deaf, Blind, and Dumb

Transmission, Transmission

This banquet is just a crumb
