Memoirs in a Song...
Stories, Stones and Bones is a name given to me in a dream some 10+ years ago. I used the title for my first book of lyrics when I sent it to be copywritten... This blog is a compendium of my book of lyrics, from 1996 to present.
The name holds a sense of ancient wisdom, which I hope begins to seep thru my songs: What are the stories the earth tells, that are written on our ancestral bones? What is the deeper pool of knowledge that we can drink from as we birth ourselves into creative evolutionary beings? Where are our roots? What is the journey we have taken, personally and collectively?...
And so begins the story, woven in song, as fallen through the lyrics of my music...
More lyrics will be coming soon (I've written well over 100 songs!)... In the meantime, I hope you enjoy!
[Please note that you will want to read from bottom to top (in reverse). The "archive by date" list on the lefthand side will help your journey - which begins in March of 1996, when the first song flew out of my lips... You can also search by THEMES: the songs which I like a lot or are in current performance rotation are in the theme of *favorites*]
Another rambling rap-style poem... ...written upon my return to Boulder - my home.
I’m a poet, a prophet, a lover and a friend
And I’d like to ride this wave unto the end
Breathing through, breathing in and out
Breathing so deep there is no doubt
This song is a calling to one and to all
This love is a bridge that will never fall, never fall
Can you hear, can you hear, can you hear the call
This is all, this is all that dissolves
This is all, this is all, this is free fall
This is all, this is all that dissolves
This is all, this is all, this is free fall
freeeeeee fall
