words from chorus taken from "In the Back of The Real" by Allen Ginsberg, all other lyrics adapted from the anonymous Coptic poem "The Thunder Perfect Mind"

yellow yellow yellow flower
flower of industry
ugly flower, spiky flower
flower nonetheless
with a great big yellow, yellow rose in your brain
with a great big yellow, yellow rose

this is, this is, this is the flower of the world
o rose
o rose

i am fear and i'm afraid
i'm a whore and i can't get laid
i am peace and a blunt switchblade
i am war and a feckless maid
i'm the savior no one sought
i'm perfection duly flawed
i am godless, i am god
i'm your mother's thick wet rod
i am shameless, i'm ashamed
i am blameless, i'm to blame
i am aimless, i'm the aim
i am nameless, Hi, I'm Graham!

o rose
o rose

i from whom you've always hidden
found between your arms at night
i'm the name of the sound and the sound of the name
and the blinding glare of the darkest light

to me you'll whisper hateful love
in the fearful calm of ancient youth,
'cause my mute lips which can't stop singing
sing a senseless, wordless, thoughtless truth

yellow yellow yellow flower
flower of industry
ugly flower, spiky flower
flower nonetheless
with a great big yellow, yellow rose in your brain
with a great big yellow, yellow rose

yellow yellow yellow flower
yellow yellow yellow yellow

yellow yellow yellow flower
flower of industry
ugly flower, spiky flower
flower nonetheless
with a great big yellow, yellow rose in your brain
with a great big yellow, yellow rose

this is, this is, this is the flower of the world

The Flower And The Perfect Mind

This sad and wistful piano solo was composed during multiple depressions in my life. I wrote the second movement while I was 13. At a time I was dealing with aggressive bullying and tremendous anger. 
I later wrote what would be the first movement while I was in Highschool and found myself becoming depressed as the relentless bullying continued. 
The third movement was written in the style of a funeral march during my freshman year of college.
Many things ended for me that year. The music composition program at my college was cut, I lost my dear pet dog, and I lost my faith due to some bigotry I experienced in the church.
I then spent several years perfecting these melodies and was able to studio record the piece in 2020, recorded by the pianist Edward Cohen. 
I hope these relentless emotional exaltations can also heal you of some of the anger and hurt you’ve experienced as you listen.
