Song 22, written on February 21, 2022.

Drum and bass. Soul cereal.

Inspired by a poem I wrote in college, which in turn was inspired by religious imagery and Neil Gaiman stories.

Rickenbacker 4003s bass, Tama Club Jam, and yes, that was a single breath.

lyrics

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Hahhhhhhhh...

I leave my whispers glistening
In souls of children listening
A tunnel carved from blistering stone
I called my sacred home

I scratch with nails of sulfur rock
I swim canals, the burning loch
I feast on memories long forgotten
And I will consume your dreams

As often as I disbelieve
(I savor faithful flesh, indeed)
As seldom as I weave my puzzles
I dance on walls of gold

I breathe the dust of a million years
I wade through oceans of wasted tears

And still I walk in the shadow of your gods

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...
