Sol attacks the windows I keep meaning to paint black rouses more than body the past tense slithers in again soul parasite knowing nothing but to feed on pains memories in its gluttony rush to surface gulping air refreshed knowing they live on and on and on and I reach for sonic redemption to lose and heal within the sounds of soul others cannot know Musicians salvation self medicating in sound sonic landscape swell grow to surround that I may breathe again lifes air if only a moment cleanse to remind who and what I am Breathe deep the music touching healing bringing me back to home One more refrain to fuel the self defines the day joined one Muse the rain flooding heart bring to me that I may offer My song of thanks in your ether world you smiling lead Conducts the Sound of Light Composing Life in minor keys offering hope Of true resolution lift my hearts eyes "Time is merely change. It neither enslaves nor determines us. It is instead our opportunity for self-definition" [This message has been edited by ATelamon (edited 02-16-2001).] |

Thanks Serenity, glad you enjoyed. Me, I play guitars, keys, trumpet, vocalist etc , but am primarily a writer of music. Usually I just use a drummer in the studio and do the rest myself. Hey I cannot blame anyone else that way.LOL Thanks for the interest. AT "Time is merely change. It neither enslaves nor determines us. It is instead our opportunity for self-definition" |

just a note here...Atel? Frank Zappa was much the same way...he called musicians a "necessary nuisance" LOL...just thought that might be of interest to you! " Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." T.S. Eliot |

Beautiful....Strong emotion (especially in the beginning) leading from darkness to light. This poem, I do believe, shows best who you are. Embracing all depths from the darkest nights to the full sun A man of fierce strength captures delicate beauty with a gentleness rarely seen I loved it!  To capture and live a moment is truly living |

Love the musical sense and flow...however you can ask anyone here...I'm as hooked as you are...this is great I really loved it!! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

My thanks to all. S- I understand that so well. People often ask "How could replace that person..." Well usually it is "he or she is not a jerk. And they are reliable. Not to mention they show up on time, sober, and ready to play." E-glad to know there are more out there. DK- well you know me, music is the heart of me. Your words responding echo the melodic you, which has always been. Thank you. AT aka KJH Good listening to all. "Time is merely change. It neither enslaves nor determines us.
